> Haiti’s Foreign Minister Raina Forbin urged the UN Security Council to renew the mandate of the internationally backed Gang Suppression Force and ensure its full deployment before elections scheduled for December 13. The mandate expires on September 30. An estimated 1,408 people were killed and 656 injured in Haiti from April through June, much of it linked to gangs.
