Since 2020, Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince has been the site of an ongoing conflict. The government of Haiti and Haitian security forces have struggled to maintain their control of Port-au-Prince amid this conflict, with anti-government forces speculated to control up to 90% of the city by 2023. In response to the escalating fighting, an armed vigilante movement, known as bwa kale, also emerged, with the purpose of fighting the gangs. On 2 October 2023, United Nations Security Council Resolution 2699 was approved, authorizing a Kenya-led "multinational security support mission" to Haiti. Until 2024, the war was between two major groups and their allies: the Revolutionary Forces of the G9 Family and Allies and the G-Pèp. However, in February 2024 the two rival groups formed a coalition opposing the government and the UN mission.
