Gang violence in Haiti continues to escalate, severely impacting daily life in the capital, Port-au-Prince. Early Monday morning, two upscale neighborhoods were attacked in a brutal rampage that left at least a dozen people dead. In response to the ongoing turmoil, the Haitian government has extended the nighttime curfew until March 20.
Amid the chaos, residents are finding it increasingly difficult to cope. A local shared his harrowing experience over the past three weeks, highlighting the closure of schools and hospitals due to the relentless attacks. Additionally, the community is grappling with a severe gas shortage, exacerbating the crisis. "There is no day passed without hearing heavy guns shooting," he recounted, painting a vivid picture of the constant fear and uncertainty engulfing the city.
