HAITI – At least 50 people were killed and dozens injured in a large-scale gang attack near Port-Au-Prince, Haiti.

Local media report 100 homes burned as gangs tried to seize control, while Haitian police killed 20 gang members and sent in reinforcements to restore order.

The violent assault adds to Haiti’s mounting crisis, where gang-related violence claimed over 5,000 lives in 2024.

Gangs now control 80% of the capital, where a multinational police force continues efforts to quell the violence.
