UN Security Council votes to extend Haiti gang suppression force
The UN Security Council has voted to extend the mandate of the multinational security force deployed to help Haitian authorities combat powerful criminal gangs. The force, led at Kenya's initiative, has been supporting Haiti's overwhelmed police since 2024 amid a collapse of state authority and surging gang violence. Details of the vote's margins and duration were not immediately available.
Why now: The extension keeps international support for Haiti's fight against gang violence in place at a time when the country's security crisis remains severe.
