This emergency declaration, effective from May 12 to May 13, responds to a surge in gang-related violence that has significantly impacted public safety. Authorities granted expanded powers to law enforcement to restore order in the affected regions. The FCDO urges travelers and residents to avoid the specified areas and strictly follow local authorities’ guidance.
