The Armed Forces of the Dominican Republic maintain robust reinforcement and surveillance on the border with Haiti to defend the sovereignty and integrity of the Dominican territory in the event of any eventuality.
Given the deliveries of vehicles, equipment, supplies by President Luis Abinader to the armed forces, as well as the construction of the Perimeter Fence, it has contributed to a safer and more secure border than ever before, reported border residents.
Following the military deployment on the north-south border maintained by the Dominican Army and the Specialized Land Border Security Corps CESFRONT, in recent days hundreds of Haitians with irregular immigration status have been detained, who are then handed over to the General Directorate of Immigration for their repatriation.
Crisis.
Since the shooting assassination of Haitian President Jovenel Moisés, the crisis and insecurity in the poorest nation in Latin America has been increasing, a condition that has not been able to improve despite the arrival of a multinational force led by Kenya.
Given the criminal acts carried out by gangs in Haiti, Haitians distrust that an international response can quell the violence that has claimed the lives of hundreds of civilians.
Markets
Despite the crisis and insecurity in Haiti, the border markets are carried out normally under the protection and surveillance of soldiers from the Dominican Army and the Specialized Land Border Security Corps CESFRONT.
