PORT-AU-PRINCE (Reuters) – A second group of 75 Guatemalan soldiers arrived in the Haitian capital Port-au-Prince on Saturday to boost a United Nations-backed mission tasked with restoring order amid chaos wrought by gangs, the mission said.
Another 75 soldiers arrived a day earlier, taking the total Guatemalan troop numbers to 150. All the reinforcements come from Guatemala’s military police unit, Guatemala’s government said in a statement.
A further eight soldiers from El Salvador also arrived on Friday.
