Military satellites over Haiti
On 21 October 2026, working military satellites of 11 countries were predicted to pass over the places in Haiti where UCDP recorded fighting this year: 78 passes by 76 satellites. China's made the most: 41 passes by 40 satellites. A country's satellites over itself are not counted.
UCDP recorded 151 deaths (best estimate) in 32 events of state-based armed conflict in Haiti between 2 January 2026 and 26 July 2026.

predictedHow often each country's working military satellites pass over the fighting in Haiti in the UTC day, for how many minutes in all, and by how many satellites. Arrows: the last 7 days against the 7 before, shown from 10% when new, moved or stopped satellites are behind it, or from 35% otherwise.
