Reuters reported that a group of soldiers from Guatemala and El Salvador arrived in the capital Port-au-Prince (Haiti) on January 3 to join a multinational force supported by the United Nations to suppress gangs.

The group of soldiers, including 75 Guatemalans and eight Salvadorans, is tasked with strengthening security and combating armed gangs that have caused serious violence in Haiti. Interim Presidential Council President Leslie Voltaire, Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aime and US Ambassador Dennis Hankins welcomed the soldiers at Port-au-Prince airport.

"They came to reinforce the Multinational Force in the fight against gangs and guns in the country," according to the Haitian government . El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, who has won widespread support for his crackdown on organized crime in his home country, has said he will be able to "fix" Haiti and that gangs must be "eradicated." This could open up hope for an improvement in the escalating tension in Haiti.

Criminal gangs massacre civilians, Haitian prime minister goes abroad to ask for help

Haiti has been mired in a security crisis as gangs have gained control and violence has escalated since late 2024. Many areas have fallen into the hands of criminal groups, while successive massacres have forced thousands to flee their homes. About 10 countries have pledged more than 3,100 soldiers to Haiti, but so far only a handful have been deployed. Haiti has also launched numerous efforts to crack down on gangs, but has yet to stop them from expanding their territory and increasing their activities. Meanwhile, the Haitian national police force has lost thousands of personnel in recent years, making the situation even more dire.
