A "robust use of force" by a multinational police deployment - enabled by military assets - is needed to restore law and order in Haiti and disarm gangs, Reuters reported citing UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Tuesday.

Guterres again called for countries to contribute to such a force and for the Security Council to back a deployment. He also outlined two potential options for the UN to provide logistical support to a multinational force and Haiti's police and to strengthen a UN political mission already in Haiti.
