The Honduran Navy's Guanaja base, working with Zeus Academy and community partners, planted over 200 seedlings at La Rambla Los Fuertes in Roatán to restore one hectare and preserve the island's green spaces and tourism appeal.

The first swamper iguanas (Ctenosaura bakeri) of the 2026 breeding season have hatched on Utila, advancing conservation efforts for the critically endangered species found only in the island's mangroves; hatchlings will be reared at a research station before reintroduction to the wild.

Funding of roughly L1.9–2 million (about $76,000–80,000) has been approved to build a second floor on the Los Fuertes neighborhood health center, community board president Marco Tulio Romero announced, saying the expansion will strengthen medical services for the growing community.
