UN Security Council approves “Gang Suppression Force” for Haiti

Source: Al Jazeera [Qatari state media]

“The United Nations Security Council has voted to expand an international [occupation] force deployed to Haiti and transform it into a so-called ‘Gang Suppression Force.’ The resolution passed by the council on Tuesday provides a clear mandate for the force to work with local authorities to ‘neutralise, isolate, and deter’ [rival] gangs, secure infrastructure, and seek to secure institutional stability. It would raise the personnel ceiling from 2,500 in the current mission, first approved in 2023, to 5,550 personnel.” (09/30/25)
