Gang Violence Is Escalating in Haiti And It’s Becoming Deadly
Thousands of Haitians living in the country’s capital are fleeing their homes as criminal activity and violence caused by several armed gangs have become more rampant.
The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has reported that civilians have been “threatened, injured, sexually assaulted or killed, and homes have been looted and burned.” Around a third of Port-au-Prince’s territory has been affected by the local skirmishes, displacing an estimate of 13,600 people since the beginning of June.
The evacuees are mainly from Martissant, BasDelmas, Saint Martin and Delmas 75.
