The Fenian raids (1866–1871) were US-based Irish republican attacks on Canada. By hitting British North American targets, the Fenian Brotherhood hoped to force a British withdrawal from Ireland. The separate incursions caused major security alarms but failed to achieve any of their aims.

TIL the Torá have expressed interest in reviving their language, but no one seemed to have enough memory of Torá to get anywhere with the idea. In 2006, there were two fluent speakers left. In 2018, only a few words of the language had been preserved.

Since 2020, Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince has been the site of an ongoing conflict. The government of Haiti and Haitian security forces have struggled to maintain their control of Port-au-Prince amid this conflict, with anti-government forces speculated to control up to 90% of the city by 2023.

On 2 October 2023, United Nations Security Council Resolution 2699 was approved, authorizing a Kenya-led "multinational security support mission" to Haiti. The last Kenyan-led Multinational Security Support personnel have departed, handing off to the UN-backed Gang Suppression Force (GSF) — but only ~800 GSF troops from Chad, Guatemala and El Salvador have deployed toward a planned 5,500, under new Mongolian force commander Maj. Gen. Erdenebat Batsuuri, with the force's first operations expected in the coming weeks.

Until 2024, the war was between two major groups and their allies: the Revolutionary Forces of the G9 Family and Allies and the G-Pèp. However, in February 2024 the two rival groups formed a coalition opposing the government and the UN mission.

 UN Secretary-General Guterres visited on 16–17 June, warning that more than 1 in 10 Haitians are now homeless — displacement has reached 1.5M and 2,300 have been killed in 2026. Erik Prince's Vectus Global is operating in parallel with explosive-laden drones. The PM has cast doubt on holding a presidential vote by August as clashes spread, displace hundreds more, and suspend medical services. GBV surged in early 2026 (nearly 21 documented cases/day, 70%+ rape, up 43% from Q4 2025). Over 1.4M are displaced — about half children — and 5.7M+ face severe food insecurity. The gap between gang capability and the GSF's footprint is widening, not closing.
