In Haiti, hundreds of United Nations troops raided the Cite Soleil section of Port Au Prince Tuesday populated by many supporters of ousted President Jean Betrand Aristide. The BBC reports Brazilian, Chilean and Sri Lankan troops took part in the operation, backed by the Chilean air force, as well as Chinese and Jordanian riot police. The United Nations is planning to set up a permanent presence in the area. The US-backed government of Gerard Latortue has blamed backers of Aristide for much of the political violence since the February coup.
