Haiti gang base destroyed by Salvadoran troops, Bukele says
El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele said Tuesday that Salvadoran troops destroyed the “headquarters” of the 400 Mawozo gang in Haiti.
Bukele described 400 Mawozo as one of Haiti's largest criminal organisations. The attack was the first against a target since Bukele deployed more than 2,000 soldiers to Haiti in late October, saying they were there to rescue four missing Salvadoran personnel.
Uncertainty notes
The supplied material does not provide independent confirmation of Bukele's claim.
The exact location of the reported gang headquarters, casualty figures and damage details were not supplied.
