Central American Forces Deployed in Haiti to Combat Gang Violence

Credited from: VOANEWS

  • 150 military police officers from Central America have arrived in Haiti to support the government's efforts against violent gangs.
  • This deployment includes approximately 75 officers from Guatemala and a small number from El Salvador, aimed at restoring order in the capital.
  • The Kenyan commander of the U.N.-backed mission emphasized that gangs must either surrender or confront the troops.
  • Intensified gang activity has resulted in 85% of Port-au-Prince being controlled by gangs since the 2021 assassination of President Jovenel Moise.
  • This mission is complemented by around 400 security officers from Kenya and personnel from other nations, though their deployment timeline remains unclear.
