The article by Jean Loobentz Cesar, published by Reuters, reports on the dire situation in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, where violence and gang warfare have displaced thousands of residents. The UN estimates that 8,730 people have been displaced in the Carrefour-Feuilles neighborhood alone, with many seeking shelter in places like the Gymnasium Vincent sports center. Haiti's Prime Minister Ariel Henry has called for international security assistance, and Kenyan delegates have met with Haitian officials to consider leading a peacekeeping force.

Haiti's capital sees mass displacement as gangs wage turf wars

26 Aug 2023  |  Reuters
In Port-au-Prince, Haiti, violence from armed gangs has led to the displacement of approximately 8,730 people in the neighborhood of Carrefour-Feuilles, with around 200,000 displaced nationwide. The local police force is under-resourced and unable to combat the gangs effectively. Haiti's Prime Minister Ariel Henry has requested international security assistance, and Kenyan delegates have discussed leading such a force, with a U.N. Security Council vote expected. Displaced residents are sheltering in inadequate facilities, such as the Gymnasium Vincent sports center, and are facing harsh conditions, including the impacts of Tropical Storm Franklin. Local organizations and NGOs are providing some support, but the needs are overwhelming. Residents express concern that even with international intervention, the situation may revert once the assistance ends.
