The White House expressed horror and strongly condemned the massacre of nearly 200 people by a gang in Haiti over the weekend, as reported by spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre. At least 184 individuals, mostly elderly, were killed with knives and machetes. The interim prime minister and the UN reported that the atrocity was ordered by a gang leader as retaliation for the believed voodoo-related death of his child. Haitian NGOs provided additional details about the incident.
