Bukele announces a military operation in Haiti and demands that gangs free the four Salvadorans

President Nayib Bukele on Wednesday posted a message in Haitian Creole addressed to the gang leaders who, he says, are holding four Salvadorans hostage in Haiti. He said the captives are not combatants but aviation technicians from the Salvadoran mission, which mainly carries out medical evacuations, and that they were kidnapped while returning from buying food. Bukele said a military operation to rescue them was launched that day and warned that action could intensify if they are not released. "Return our four compatriots to us alive, unharmed, and everything will go back to how it was before the kidnapping" (our translation), he said, according to the Spanish version reported by La Página and El Diario de Hoy. The four went missing after the October 18 ambush in the Santo area of Croix-des-Bouquets.
