Information about the Military force and army structure of Haiti.

Haiti is an island country located in the Caribbean. The country's military power is provided by the Haitian Armed Forces (Force Armée d'Haïti - FADH). However, in 1995, the Haitian Armed Forces were disbanded and replaced by the Haitian National Police Service (Police Nationale d'Haïti - PNH). Therefore, Haiti's military force is focused more on the police force. In Haiti, the military is led by a military commander appointed by the president. However, with the disbandment of military forces since 1995, the Haitian army is more involved in tasks such as border security and disaster response. After the major earthquake in 2010, Haiti focused more on such disasters and aimed to be prepared for disasters by collaborating with non-governmental organizations and international aid organizations. The Haitian Armed Forces have an average strength of 15,000 soldiers. These soldiers serve in units led by military training and trained personnel. The Haitian Armed Forces generally serve to ensure local security and stability and may also take part in international peacekeeping operations. In Haiti, control of military forces rests with civilian authorities, and the conduct of military activities is carried out within the constitutional framework. Haiti is also known as a country that contributes to peacekeeping operations of the United Nations and other international organizations. As a result, the Haitian Armed Forces have a force primarily involved in tasks such as border security and disaster response. The country's military structure operates under the control of civilian authorities and in cooperation with international aid organizations.
