“Our objective is to secure strategic areas, limit gang movement, and return these spaces to the population,” says Brigadier General Elon Clarke, GSF Deputy Force Commander. Working alongside the Haitian National Police (HNP) and the Armed Forces of Haiti (FAd’H), the #GSF# continues operations to secure key infrastructure, improve freedom of movement, and strengthen security in strategic locations across Haiti. From operations in Artibonite, Tabarre and Cité Soleil to the protection of critical sites, these efforts form part of a broader security strategy aimed at restoring stability and supporting communities.

On Monday, 5 October, hundreds of #GSF# soldiers deployed in Tabarre, supported by armored vehicles and helicopters. Operating largely on foot, troops extended the GSF’s presence into areas difficult to access by armored vehicles, including narrow passageways and abandoned buildings that could be used as hideouts by armed groups. 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#

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#
