The drones are commercial models modified with improvised explosives, according to a new report by The Washington Post. While they have yet to eliminate any gang leaders, they have caused civilian injuries, including women and children, according to a healthcare worker.

Regardless, their use has drawn support from some Haitian citizens and human rights organizations. Some others, in contrast, have expressed concern about accountability and collateral damage.
