Haitian security forces regained control of the country's main stadium that had been under gang control for two years. The Haitian National Police said in a statement that it had taken 'full control' of the venue with the Task Force. The operation is part of a deployment of around 2,000 soldiers ordered by El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele, who announced that the troops will set up an operational base in the stadium to push further into the territory.
