Haitian Police Kill 28 Gang Members Amid Rising Violence in Port-au-Prince
The Haitian police, supported by local residents, reportedly killed 28 gang members following attacks on neighborhoods in Port-au-Prince. The violence comes in the wake of a recent surge attributed to the gang alliance ‘Viv Ansanm,’ which led to the resignation of former Prime Minister Ariel Henry. UN Secretary-General António Guterres expressed concern over the escalating violence, while the NGO Doctors Without Borders suspended operations due to serious threats against its staff. Haiti’s security situation continues to deteriorate amid a political crisis and rampant gang control.
