El Tiempo and Al Jazeera Arabic emphasise that Colombian military personnel are reportedly among the 18 suspects being extradited to Florida, foregrounding the Colombian government's role or accountability in the case. SCMP and Straits Times report 18 suspects transferred to the US for trial as a procedural legal milestone without emphasising national identity of the accused.

Straits Times and SCMP treat the transfer as the significant development ('flown to US to face trial'), with Al Jazeera Arabic naming the victim (Haitian President Jovenel Moïse) and connecting it to his 2021 assassination without initially foregrounding the national identity of suspects.
