  • Kilmar Abrego is originally from El Salvador and is currently in immigration detention in Virginia after his arrest in March.
  • Proposals to send deportees to Eswatini will be discussed between the governments before processes are initiated.
  • A U.S. Department of Homeland Security email informed Abrego's lawyers that he would be deported to Eswatini after he expressed fear of persecution in Uganda.
