  • El Salvador concluded 2024 with a historic low of 114 homicides, marking significant progress in security.
  • President Nayib Bukele claimed the nation is now the safest in the Western Hemisphere based on newly reported statistics.
  • The homicide rate translates to 1.9 per 100,000 people, the lowest in Latin America compared to previous years.
  • Since the implementation of the state of emergency in March 2022, over 83,000 arrests have been made, amidst concerns over due process.
  • Despite the security improvements, the ongoing state of exception raises questions about justification for extended emergency powers.
