Police forces, working alongside local brigadiers, successfully regained control of several neighborhoods in Carrefour-Feuilles that had been seized by the Viv Ansanm gang. Media outlets visiting the area reported extensive damage, with homes burned and destroyed by armed men during the gang’s occupation.

Gang leader Krisla appeared publicly in the streets of Carrefour, leading a large crowd in an anti-government protest. As he had previously announced, the demonstration was held to denounce what he calls the government’s mismanagement of the country. The event marks a bold new move by Krisla and raises serious concerns about gang influence in political mobilizations.

residents of Mirebalais stormed the Peligre hydroelectric plant and cut power to the entire country. This action followed the destruction of heavy equipment that was supposed to help remove the Viv Ansanm gang from the area. Locals accused the government of playing games and warned that electricity will not return until the gang is removed from the Central Plateau.

Heavily armed gangs in Mirebalais attacked and destroyed heavy equipment that had already arrived in the area to support upcoming police operations. The sabotage occurred shortly after the machinery was deployed, dealing a major blow to efforts aimed at regaining control of the region. This escalation underscores the gangs’ determination to resist any state-led intervention in the Central Plateau.

Specialized units of the Haitian National Police (PNH) carried out an operation in Furcy, Kenscoff. Several armed individuals were fatally wounded during exchanges of gunfire, and police seized two rifles. Authorities successfully took control of a site that had been used by criminal groups.

Security forces launched a drone attack on gang strongholds in Gran Ravine, Port-au-Prince. The operation targeted key areas used by armed groups for storing weapons and coordinating assaults. Residents reported loud explosions and heavy smoke, with many fleeing the area for safety. Authorities have not yet confirmed casualties, but the strike marks a significant escalation in anti-gang efforts in the capital’s southern districts.
