The #GSF# is present in Gros-Morne, Artibonite. At the request of local authorities, the Force reinforced its deployment in the area on Monday night. Using resources already in place, the GSF continues to adapt its deployment to respond to identified threats. GSF personnel are working closely with the Haitian National Police to strengthen the security response and support local authorities in preventing further threats.

This morning, GSF personnel came under fire from armed elements during a patrol in the Gros-Morne area. The GSF responded in accordance with its rules of engagement. Three armed individuals were killed, while others fled. No GSF casualties were reported. GSF personnel remained in the area for several hours to monitor the situation before returning to their base in Gonaïves. Reports later indicated that gang members targeted civilians in the area, upon the departure of GSF troops. The GSF strongly condemns these attacks and any violence against civilians. #GSFHaiti# #HaitiSecure# #Haiti#

Troops also removed numerous barricades. The operation in Tabarre is part of broader GSF patrols and interventions across several communes in the Ouest and Artibonite departments. The GSF remains committed to adapting its operations to evolving threats and available resources, with the objective of contributing to improved safety and security for affected communities. #HaitiSecure# #Haiti#
