Documentary: How Bukele Broke the Gangs
<p>Nayib Bukele achieved what no president in the last three decades could: He broke the gangs in El Salvador. But how? And who is paying the price for his iron-fisted methods? The change in security has a less-publicized flip side: the arrest of thousands of innocent people and the criminalization of poor communities. This video is a co-production between El Faro English and independent journalist Bianca Graulau.</p>
