HRW: ICE detains 8 Nicaraguan exiles, including 2023 political prisoners

Human Rights Watch reports U.S. ICE agents detained eight Nicaraguan exiles, several of whom were among political prisoners released in 2023. HRW urges U.S. authorities to halt deportations to Nicaragua, citing risks of persecution or torture. The incident signals potential U.S. policy shift toward deporting previously protected exiles, though details on legal status and detention conditions remain unclear.
