INSIDE CECOT - Earlier this year, the Trump administration deported hundreds of Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador, a country most had no ties to, claiming they were terrorists. This move sparked an ongoing legal battle, and nine months later the U.S. government still has not released the names of all those deported and placed in CECOT, one of El Salvador's harshest prisons. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi speaks with some of the now released deportees, who describe the brutal and torturous conditions they endured inside CECOT. Oriana Zill de Granados is the producer.

THE SHERPAS OF EVEREST - Correspondent Cecilia Vega journeys to the Himalayas for the adventure of a lifetime - trekking to Everest Base Camp at the foot of the world's tallest mountain, Mount Everest. Guiding her is 19-year-old Nima Rinji Sherpa, the youngest person to summit all 14 of the world's highest peaks. He embodies a new generation of Nepali climbers demanding recognition on the global stage. This is a double-length segment. Jacqueline Williams is the producer.
