Wednesday, November 8, 2023, Haiti reinforced surveillance and security of the border perimeter adjacent to Dajabón with police forces and soldiers after Tuesday's incident https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-40919-haiti-flash-high-tension-a-group-of-haitians-confront-the-dominican-soldiers-in-ouanaminthe-video.html where Haitians demonstrated against Dominican army patrols in an incident that could have provoked conflict in the unforeseeable consequences.

Members of the Haitian National Police (PNH), the POLIFront border police and the Departmental Order Maintenance Unit (UDMO) keep at a distance the Haitians who continue to arrive at the place where the irrigation canal is also being built in Haiti with water intake on the Massacre River. They claim that Dominican authorities cannot patrol the west side of the wall because they have built a wall, which now constitutes the new border division of the island's territory.

A Dominican army helicopter has been flying over the area since the early hours of Wednesday and several members of the police were sent as reinforcements to the Dominican side.

Members of the Dominican army were ordered to stay away from the strip of land where the conflict arose on Tuesday in order to avoid responding to provocations and provoking conflict...

Meanwhile, Haitians continue to shout insults against the authorities and the Dominican military, but have not been able to advance towards the wall, due to the presence of Haiti's security forces.
