In Haiti, a heavily armed gang killed dozens of people overnight Monday in a raid on Kenscoff, a farming community near Haiti’s capital Port-au-Prince. The U.N. reports at least 47 people were killed and 22 more wounded, with homes set ablaze, prompting outrage from survivors over the Haitian government’s failure to protect them from repeated deadly attacks.
Orisme: “We live in humiliation. The government has done nothing for us. The blood of the population does not stop flowing in Kenscoff. The prime minister has to say something to the people in Kenscoff now. We cannot take it anymore.”
The U.N.'s human rights agency reports hundreds of criminal groups in Haiti have killed over 16,000 people since early 2022. That's compounded an existing humanitarian crisis, with 6.4 million Haitians requiring assistance and nearly 1.5 million internally displaced. Despite that, the U.S. last week announced twice-weekly deportation flights to Haiti, after a Supreme Court ruling allowed the Trump administration to end temporary protected status for an estimated 350,000 Haitians.
