Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 74893, member: 636"] Haiti just became ground zero for cocaine trafficking after cops grabbed over a thousand kilos near Île de la Tortue in their biggest bust since the 90s. The UN says armed gangs basically run the smuggling corridors between South America and the US while collecting tolls from boats and moving drugs with zero pushback. Belgian authorities even seized more than a metric ton of cocaine that came through Haitian ports, and Jamaican intel points to guns-for-drugs swaps happening with gang networks. UNODC is scrambling to help the coast guard patrol heavily trafficked routes while setting up specialized courts to handle money laundering cases. The trafficking operations overlap with migrant smuggling, and criminal groups from the Bahamas and Jamaica are teaming up to exploit Haiti's collapsed justice system and strategic island locations near the Turks and Caicos.
