Global Operation Rescues 65 Children, Arrests 60 in Child-Exploitation Crackdown
by Emmitt Barry, Worthy News Washington D.C. Bureau Chief
(Worthy News) – An international law-enforcement operation has led to the arrest of 60 suspects and the rescue of 65 child victims following a year-long investigation across Central America, North America, and the Caribbean.
The effort, known as Operation Eclipse, ran from February 2025 to January 2026 and targeted networks involved in producing and distributing child sexual abuse material.
The operation was coordinated by INTERPOL with support from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime and the Child Rescue Coalition.
Authorities said most victims were between 5 and 13 years old, with about 80 percent identified as girls.
Investigators also noted that offenders included family members, neighbors, educators, online predators, and foreign travelers, demonstrating there is no single profile for sexual offenders.
Participating countries included Belize, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Panama.
Officials said the investigation helped reopen long-unsolved cases, identify victims previously unknown to authorities, and bring perpetrators to justice.
