I'm Cory with the story, bringing you the latest from around the world. Haitian security forces have used explosive drones to target gangs, killing more than 1,200 people since last March, according to A. New Human Rights Watch Report. That includes 43 adults of billions and 17 children, mostly in crowded areas of Porter Prince. These operations got support from Vectis Global, a U.S. company run by Eric Prince, the Blackwater founder. The strikes ramped up in recent months, with nearly double the number from November to January compared to earlier. Human Rights Watch says the attacks involve unlawful lethal force and urges partners to pause, help until civilian protections are in place. The United Nations has also flagged disproportionate strikes and civilian deaths, like a mother selling goods on the street. Residents now fear leaving home, because the drones weave through buildings and track targets with live video. Doctors, families, and leaders shared stories of injuries to 738 people, including dozens

of civilians. Despite international backing, gangs keep growing beyond the capital, with no major leaders caught and little sign of investigations into the civilian. Toll. Officials have not commented on the findings. This episode is proudly sponsored by our partner. Headphones in a pillow, simple idea, surprisingly addictive, S-O-L-I-S-O-L-Pillow.com
