iciHaïti - Croix-des-Bouquets : Positive report of the 2nd day of the PNH intervention
The Haitian National Police (PNH) has released a positive preliminary report on the second day of operations conducted in the Croix-des-Bouquets district, specifically in the Carrefour Marassa, Duval, and Santo 25 neighborhoods : at least 6 bandits were fatally wounded, four road trenches were almost entirely filled, and 2 armored vehicles were immobilized following minor incidents.
The operation, launched around 9:00 a.m., mobilized SWAT units, the Anti-Gang Unit (UTAG), and the Departmental Unit for Maintaining Order (UDMO West 2), supported by drones and the PNH's heavy equipment section. The actions carried out allowed for the clearing of strategic routes and significantly reduced the capacity of the 400 Mawozo gang to cause harm, whose members avoided direct confrontation.
The actions undertaken have helped to identify strategic areas and reduce the operational capabilities of the 400 Mawozo gang, most of whose members would have preferred to flee to avoid direct confrontation with law enforcement.
