10月27日 —— 海地一名安全官员周二告诉路透社,在联合国支持的部队四名萨尔瓦多成员于首都太子港郊区遭帮派伏击失踪后,约1,000名萨尔瓦多士兵已被派往海地。
Oct 27 - Around 1,000 soldiers from El Salvador have been sent to Haiti after four Salvadoran members of a UN-backed force went missing during a gang ambush on the outskirts of the capital Port-au-Prince, a security official in Haiti told Reuters on Tuesday.
目前尚不清楚谁将指挥这支新的萨尔瓦多分遣队,该分遣队在10月18日伏击事件发生后通过一系列航班抵达,将在该加勒比国家行动多久,以及还可能部署多少士兵。
It remains unclear who will command the new Salvadoran contingent, which arrived in a series of flights following the October 18 ambush, how long it will operate in the Caribbean country and how many more soldiers could still be deployed.
海地政府和萨尔瓦多政府未立即回应置评请求。这名海地安全官员因安全局势敏感,要求匿名发言。
The Haitian and Salvadoran governments did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The security official in Haiti spoke on condition of anonymity due to the sensitive security situation.
部署兵力的激增之际,联合国支持的打击帮派部队兵力已达约2,000人 —— 任务授权一年后,仅略超计划规模的三分之一 —— 对海地安全形势的影响有限。打击帮派部队未立即回应置评请求。
The surge in deployments comes as the UN-backed Gang Suppression Force has reached about 2,000 troops — just over a third of the planned size a year into its mandate — with limited impacts on Haitian security. GSF did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
多年来,海地武装帮派通过勒索和残暴袭击,不断扩大对首都及周边地区的影响力,导致近150万人流离失所,重创该国经济和机构。
Armed gangs in Haiti have for years expanded their influence over the capital and surrounding regions through extortion and brutal attacks that have displaced nearly 1.5 million people and battered its economy and institutions.
尽管有过困难的外国干预历史,海地领导层自2022年起仍请求国际安全支持,此前一年总统若韦尔·莫伊兹遇刺导致帮派暴力急剧上升,并留下权力真空。
Haiti's leadership has since 2022 requested international security support, despite a difficult history of foreign interventions, after the assassination of President Jovenel Moise a year before led to a sharp rise in gang violence and left a power vacuum.
由于暴力不断,历届过渡领导人推迟了选举,议员任期也被迫届满。
Successive transitional leaders have since postponed elections due to the violence, and lawmakers' terms were left to expire.
萨尔瓦多总统纳伊布·布克勒上周宣布发起军事行动,营救失踪的萨尔瓦多人,他们在伏击中从一辆燃烧的车辆上跳下后便下落不明,但布克勒未透露将派遣多少兵力。
El Salvador President Nayib Bukele last week announced a military operation to recover the missing Salvadorans, who have been unaccounted for since leaping from a burning vehicle during an ambush, but did not disclose how many troops he would send.
一名美国军方官员表示,美国南方司令部提供了C-130军用运输机,部分协助将萨尔瓦多部队送往海地。
A US military official said the US Southern Command had provided C-130 military transport jets to partially help bring the Salvadoran troops to Haiti.
圣萨尔瓦多与太子港之间的其他航班(包括商业航班和军用航班)已出现在航班追踪网站 Flightradar24 上,部分航班也被《迈阿密先驱报》报道过。
Other flights between San Salvador and Port-au-Prince, both commercial and military, have appeared on tracking website Flightradar24 and some were reported by the Miami Herald.
无人认领责任 布克勒通过强硬打击犯罪的政策赢得了国内广泛支持,美洲多个右翼政府都试图效仿。人权组织表示,这是以牺牲正当程序和数百起羁押期间死亡为代价的。
NO CLAIM OF RESPONSIBILITY Bukele has won broad support at home through tough-on-crime policies that several other right-wing governments in the Americas have sought to emulate. Human rights groups say this has come at the expense of due process and hundreds of deaths in custody.
布克勒称,失踪的萨尔瓦多人是萨尔瓦多空军的 GSF 技术人员,他们从市场返回基地途中遭遇袭击,他相信他们被犯罪团伙劫持为人质。
Bukele said the missing Salvadorans were GSF air force technicians returning to base from a market and that he believed they were being held hostage by criminal groups.
海地帮派头目均未对袭击事件认领责任。“400 Mawozo”帮派头目威尔逊·约瑟夫发布视频,否认扣押萨尔瓦多人质,并拒绝对他们遭遇的事情承担责任。
No Haitian gang leader has taken responsibility for the attack. Gang leader Wilson Joseph of 400 Mawozo has released videos in which he denies holding the Salvadorans hostage and rejects responsibility for what happened to them.
根据联合国的一份报告,袭击发生前,萨尔瓦多已作为联合国支持的部队一部分部署了至少 124 名士兵。布克勒随后表示,他们是被派去撤离受伤士兵的飞行员和技术人员,而非参战。
Prior to the ambush, El Salvador had deployed at least 124 troops as part of the UN-backed force, according to a United Nations report. Bukele later said they were pilots and technicians sent to evacuate injured soldiers, not fight.
在海地当局等待为“帮派镇压部队”调遣更多兵力之际,政府还与一家私营军事公司签约,该公司由“黑水”创始人、美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的盟友埃里克·普林斯运营,自 2025 年起开展反帮派无人机行动。
While Haitian authorities awaited more deployments for the Gang Suppression Force, the government also contracted a private military company run by Blackwater founder and ally of US President Donald Trump, Erik Prince, that has since 2025 run anti-gang drone operations.
多米尼加共和国总统路易斯·阿比纳德尔周一在新闻发布会上表示,作为与海地唯一接壤陆地边境的国家,他准备为抵达的萨尔瓦多人员提供后勤支持。
President Luis Abinader of the Dominican Republic, the only country to share a land border with Haiti, said at a press conference on Monday that he was prepared to provide logistical support to the Salvadoran arrivals.
