THE LATEST: SESSIONS TRAVELS TO EL SALVADOR

Jul 27, 10:31 AM EDT


WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Latest on Attorney General Jeff Sessions' trip to El Salvador (all times local):

10:30 a.m.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions is on a mission to El Salvador that aims to strengthen international cooperation in the fight against the street gang MS-13.

Sessions left early Thursday, taking no questions as he boarded. He's traveling with leaders of the Justice Department's criminal division who are seeking ways to stamp out MS-13. The violent gang has plagued many U.S. cities.

The journey comes after a week of blistering criticism from President Donald Trump of Sessions' performance as attorney general.
