A recent surge in violence in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, has resulted in at least 150 deaths, according to Volker Turk, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights. This alarming situation is part of a broader crisis, with total fatalities in Haiti reaching over 4,500 in 2023. The escalating gang violence, which now envelops 80% of the capital, poses a significant threat to the country’s stability, prompting calls for urgent measures to restore security and uphold the rule of law.
