Salvadoran military helicopters supported a major operation against Haiti’s notorious 400 Mawozo gang, as Haitian security forces destroyed a building used by gang leader Wilson Joseph near the capital, Port-au-Prince. Several armed gang members were reportedly killed, although Joseph escaped. The operation comes amid a major military offensive ordered by El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele, who deployed thousands of troops to Haiti after four Salvadoran military personnel went missing in a gang ambush last month.
