Haiti’s Escalating Gang Violence

How much longer until those gangs get on boats and head north to the shores of Florida

 

In the same quarter, an estimated 13,490 people are believed to have fled their homes due to the violence and socio-economic situation. Several schools and healthcare facilities have had to shut in Port-au-Prince, while the escalations have led to a restriction of movement, impeding access to basic services, including food and water.

The country has been facing a particularly intensive period of political and social crisis since the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse in July 2021. Following his death, the ensuing power vacuum has been filled by rival gangs, while Moïse’s successor, Prime Minister Ariel Henry, has faced challenges over his legitimacy within the country.
