compare the story in el salvador. much of that country are they actually governing and how much of it are the gangs in charge of this. is it like syria where you had parts of the country governed by certain entities? >> reporter: well, not just the 100,000 people or so who are active gang members, there are some estimates that you have to multiply that number by five or ten to get the real number of people who are actually affiliated with gangs, supported with gangs, make their lively hood with gangs and this is a small country, el salvador. we're only talking 6.5 million people. that is roughly one in ten people there is either a gang member or makes their livelihood from a gang member. we're talkingbo 10% of the population, just of the population living outside the law, and this is a population that is armed. so they are able to control and exert their will over a lot more of the percentage than that. so there are large parts of the country that are not fully under the government's control. >> i'm curious, you spent

why are so many families with children risking everything to leave el salvador? we can't even go out at night, she says. this country is torn apart by gang violence. this neighborhood where this family lives is considered one of the most dangerous. the homicide rate in el salvador is 15 times higher than in the u.s., sometimes people here just disappear. el salvador is gripped by a war between two gangs, the notoriously brutal the ms-13 and another gang called the 18th street. anna worries about her family facing possible deportation back here. my daughter is young. i'm worried the gangs will set their eyes on her, her life is in danger, she says. tonight, as far as the family knows, 6-year-old allison is still held in u.s. federal custody. her mother still held separately. no one here knows how or when little allison will be reunited with her mother. lester? >> richard engel in el salvador, thank you. >>> we'll take a turn now to the protests erupting in the streets of pittsburgh after police officer shot and killed an unarmed high school student in a neighborin

el salvador is one o the poorest countries in the world. people here also tell us so much of the exodus across the u.s. border has to do with violence. 60,000 el salvadoreans double the police force are in gangs and under the age of 19. although the overall murder rate has consistently declined since 2015, it, too, remains one of the highest in the world. so the big question is what is being done to quell the violence. >> well, police, as you can see, some of them are standing here behind me, they conduct raids to see if they can round up as many gang member as they can, and we went along with them on one of those raids. they were going door to door in a neighborhood that has been paralyzed by gang activity. they were looking for gang members accused of everything from extortion to violent crimes. one of the gangs is so vie lentd, -- violent, they actually set a bus on fire with people inside of it not too long ago, and that's why people in this neighborhood and in certain parts of the country are willing to leave and risk everything to try

in el salvador, a woman is murdered every 19 hours. and in honduras, the country with the highest homicide rate for women in the world, a woman is killed every 16 hours. to be blunt, these families face a stark choice. it's either stay and die or flee for a chance to live. the facts show this policy of deterrence isn't deterring anyone. that's because it's hard to deter people who are fleeing for their lives. in recent months we've seen the number of people seeking safety an refugee rise. there are 36,682 apprehensions in february. that jumped to 50,924. in may it rose to nearly -- 90,000. our only hope is to work with the governments of the northern triangle by exercising smart diplomacy, by working together to follow solutions that promote the rule of law, provide public safety, and free communities of terror of transnational gang violence. yet, just a few hours ago, president trump threatened to cut off aid to central america and mexico because, quote, they are not sending their best. they are not sending their best. in other words,
