El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele has announced the release of thousands of prisoners, a surprising move given his hardline security stance. Human rights groups claim about half of the 90,000 inmates are wrongfully incarcerated, often under the state of exception. The release could signal a policy shift, but details on criteria and timing remain unclear.
