CIA covert bid to topple Haitian regime fails
Washington reports a major CIA covert operation this month to destabilize Haiti's military rulers without a full invasion. Officials say agents tried to recruit Haitian officers, offering money and equipment to undermine Lt Gen Raoul Cedras Brig Gen Philippe Bramby and Lt Col Michel Joseph Francois. The effort was part of a broader destabilization campaign.

New joint Haiti invasion plan tests unproven tactics
Pentagon officials outline a rapid offshore assault using Army helicopters launched from Navy carriers and Marine amphibious units to seize ports while Air Force fighters and AWACS provide air dominance. The plan emphasizes cross service coordination, nighttime stealth, and a regional sector approach to securing Cap-Haitien and Port-au-Prince within 24 hours.
