Haiti's transitional government has reportedly reached a deal with U.S. military contractor Erik Prince in order to fight against the gangs that have taken over vast swaths of territory in the country.
The New York Times detailed that the agreement includes the operation of drones to target gang members, a strategy that had already been reported in April. Back then, the Washington Post noted the the effort to deploy weaponized drones, explaining that they are commercial models modified with improvised explosives. Authorities have yet to report a high-profile killing as a result from the strategy.
