Human Rights Watch has documented a pattern of abuse at the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement center in Fort Bliss, Texas. Testimonies reveal detainees subjected to physical violence, denial of medical care, and prolonged solitary confinement, violating both U.S. law and international human‑rights standards.

The report calls for an immediate, independent investigation and the removal of ICE personnel responsible for the abuses. It urges the Biden administration to halt operations at the facility pending a full audit and to ensure detainees receive due process and humane treatment.

These findings underscore the urgent need for systemic reform in U.S. immigration detention, demanding accountability, transparency, and adherence to the principles of justice and human dignity.
