A makeshift boat carrying 62 people capsized late Sunday near Mona Island, west of Puerto Rico, leaving three dead and 10 missing as of Tuesday; 49 people were rescued. Survivors said a fight broke out aboard and a passenger attacked others with a machete, prompting people to jump into the water; officials said no one was wearing a life jacket. Coast Guard and other agencies continued searching the area after a passing vessel reported the incident and helped rescue four people.

The U.N. Security Council extended the Gang Suppression Force’s mandate in Haiti through March 31, 2027, aiming to curb gang violence and create conditions for elections. Supporters say the force offers a different approach, but abstaining nations and critics raised concerns about its effectiveness, funding and staffing, as well as the risks of foreign intervention.
