Summary

Salvadoran forces, working with Haitian police, struck the compound of the 400 Mawozo gang in Croix-des-Bouquets near Port-au-Prince, using helicopters and ground units. President Nayib Bukele posted video of the strike on X and said the headquarters and a residence linked to gang leader Wilson Joseph ('Lanmò San Jou') were destroyed. Footage shows helicopters attacking the compound, and dozens of people were seen running out of the property. Twenty people are reported dead, though these figures are not confirmed by pro-government media in El Salvador, and the BBC has not verified the video or location. Joseph was reportedly not present. Haitian Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé praised the operation, while Amnesty International and U.S. diplomats have raised questions about coordination and rules for the use of force.
