PORT-AU-PRINCE, April 1 (Reuters) – A team of Chadian forces arrived in Haiti on Wednesday, marking the first troop deployment of the U.N.-backed Gang Suppression Force (GSF), the force announced on social media.
U.N. official Jack Christofides also arrived as special representative of the GSF, which was introduced as a larger successor to the Kenyan-led Multinational Security Support (MSS) mission, although no significant deployments had arrived since its approval last September.
