Kenyan-led Multi-national Security Support Mission (MSS) in Haiti has successfully recaptured Télcos Station from gang control, marking a major step in efforts to restore peace in the violence-plagued region.

In a statement on Monday, August 25, 2025, MSS spokesperson Jack Ombaka said a specialised operations team, in coordination with the Haitian National Police (PNH), carried out a night raid between 1:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. to retake the area from gangs led by the figure known as “Izo2.”

“The gangs suffered heavy losses as the security forces conducted a methodical sweep, moving door to door to neutralise armed resistance. Several individuals attempting to flee or hide were apprehended, while a cache of weapons and other materials was seized and is now in PNH custody,” Ombaka said.
