Sources on the ground confirm the collapse and desperation of criminal gangs in the face of the arrival of El Salvador’s special forces in Croix-des-Bouquets.
- COLLAPSE OF KEY FACTION: After a wave of tactical attacks with drones and heavy fire, the operational base of “Chen Mechan” (a crucial ally in the criminal structure of the plain) was completely destroyed. His faction no longer exists in the area.
- MASSIVE CASUALTIES IN THE LANMÒ GANG: The Lanmò San Jou organization suffered massive losses of soldiers in the recent clashes. The volume of casualties is so high that their makeshift medical shelters have completely collapsed.
- ATTEMPTED KIDNAPPING OF MEDICAL PERSONNEL: In desperation over the number of seriously wounded, armed commandos attempted to kidnap medical staff at the Centro Hospitalario de Santo 22 and Sainte Camille Hospital to force them to treat their men under threat of death.
The situation is one of extreme volatility, with hand-to-hand battles on the ground.
