Head of Haiti’s Palace Guard Subject of US Law Enforcement Investigation into Arms Trafficking
https://www.counterpunch.org/2021/07/09/head-of-haitis-palace-guard-subject-of-us-law-enforcement-investigation-into-arms-trafficking/
In April 2020, Carl Frederic Martin, a Haitian-American and former US Navy officer, together with the sister of Dimitri Herard, created Tradex Haiti S.A., a security company. Another company, this one Florida-based and owned by Martin, received a $73,000 State Department contract in November 2019 to provide “riot gear kit[s]” for a specialized unit of the Haitian National Police (PNH).
In late August 2020, I reported on Martin’s State Department contract, the new security company he had formed with a relative of Herard, and their attempts to create a weapons manufacturing company called HOFSA. The activities of Martin and Herard came directly after the arrest of businessman Aby Larco, accused of being a significant source of arms trafficking in Haiti. Larco and Martin had formed a security company together years earlier, though they eventually ended the partnership. Seven days after Larco’s arrest, Martin and a relative of Herard filed the paperwork to incorporate their new arms manufacturing company, though its business license was eventually revoked.
Speaking on local radio this morning, former Senator Steven Benoit cast doubt on the official narrative that this team of Colombians was responsible for assassination of Moïse, alleging that they in fact had been in Haiti under a contract with the government. “The President of the Republic, Jovenel Moïse, was assassinated by his security agents,” Benoit claimed, without providing details. Also today, White House press secretary Jenn Psaki announced that, responding to a request for security and investigative assistance from the Haitian government, the US would be sending senior FBI and DHS officials to Haiti as soon as possible.

Marines Train With Handheld Swarming Drones That Can Be Fired From 40mm Grenade Launchers

The drones are reusable when employed in a way that doesn't result in their destruction, and DefendTex even says they are waterproof, which could make them suitable for recovery when used in missions at sea or in bad weather. A fact sheet from the DefendTex website states that the drones' targeting and control functions can be accomplished via “integration with existing deployed smart devices using readily available communications technology” and an encrypted radio datalink to a portable ground control station. In addition, the Drone40 boasts a GPS-based autopilot system.
CHINA SECRETLY DEVELOPED AUTONOMOUS KILLER ROBOT SUBMARINES

There’s no evidence that the robot submarines were ever used in a real combat scenario, according to SCMP. But the way that they identify and attack perceived threats does make the tech susceptible to error, the outlet notes.
In a 2010 field test, the drone immediately switched to combat mode when it picked up on the sonar signal of a mock submarine target. It then circled around to figure out the target’s exact location before bullseyeing it with a torpedo — all without human oversight, control, or intervention.
