PNH or DICOP official statement on the February 23 downtown shootout: trigger is any official communique confirming or denying officer involvement, unit identity, and casualty count; direction of travel is either toward confirmed infiltration, which would be a structural crisis indicator, or confirmed external impersonation, which maintains the existing threat framework at elevated intensity; risk is that absence of official communication itself becomes an operational ambiguity sustaining maximum caution posture. U.S. Embassy security alert status update: trigger is any new embassy notice modifying the Delmas kidnapping warning; direction is either escalation with specific area restrictions or downgrade if interdictions produce confirmed network disruption; risk is operational planning paralysis if no update is issued and organizations must act on unresolved alert conditions.
