Gang violence is a persistent issue, leading to restrictions on air travel. A ban on flights below a certain altitude has been extended until March. This restriction applies to commercial operators and certain aircraft in areas surrounding the capital city.

The situation began to unfold after an incident involving gunfire and a commercial plane in November 2025. Since then, the relevant authorities have taken steps to address the issue, including extending the ban multiple times.

Further details about the situation and the ban are available, including information about previous incidents and the impact on air travel.
