Amnesty warns that human rights crisis in El Salvador is worsening

==========

Amnesty International accuses President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador of reducing gang violence in the country by replacing it with state violence, leading to a human rights crisis. Bukele's campaign has resulted in the deaths of 235 people in state custody and 327 cases of enforced disappearances. The government's actions, including suspending civil liberties and increasing prison overcrowding, have raised concerns about human rights violations. Despite criticism from Amnesty, the government remains committed to its anti-gang campaign. The international community has been urged to respond more robustly to the human rights crisis in El Salvador, with Amnesty highlighting the need for a condemnation of any public security model that relies on human rights violations.
