[Haiti] Battles: Armed clash

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. Armed clashes occurred on April 2, 2025, between Haitian police forces and the Viv Ansanm Gang in the Tabarre-Butte Boyer area of Port-au-Prince's Ouest department. The confrontations spread across multiple neighborhoods including Clercine 24 and 22, Tabarre 27, and Croix des Missions, with gang members reportedly looting homes during the violence.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates and whether violence spreads to Port-au-Prince's main commercial districts or port facilities.

Watch points

• Monitor whether clashes expand beyond Tabarre area toward Port-au-Prince's central business district or port infrastructure
• Track reports of additional gang coordination or territorial control changes that could affect humanitarian aid distribution and commercial operations
