Vectus Global

Vectus Global is a private contractor providing support to Haitian security forces in anti-gang operations. The organization is now newsworthy due to a recent Human Rights Watch (HRW) report detailing the impact of drone strikes carried out by Haitian forces with Vectus Global's assistance. Since March of last year, these operations, involving quadcopter drones equipped with explosives, have resulted in over 1,200 deaths and hundreds of injuries in and around Port-au-Prince. The HRW report specifically highlights that a significant number of civilian casualties, including adults and children, have occurred as a result of these drone strikes. Vectus Global's involvement raises concerns about the oversight and accountability of private military contractors in conflict zones and the potential for civilian harm in drone warfare.
