Haiti Receives Nearly 200,000 Deportees Amid Rising Gang Violence and Security Concerns
Nearly 200,000 people have been forcibly deported to Haiti in the first eight months of 2024, increasing pressure on a country facing escalating gang violence. A recent gang attack in Kenscoff near Port-au-Prince killed 47 people, including children, with homes set on fire and victims attacked inside a church. UN officials warned that ongoing insecurity threatens preparations for Haiti's first elections in a decade and called for strengthened international security support amid concerns over illegal arms trafficking worsening the conflict.
