Haitian Capital Controlled by Gangs
Port-au-Prince, the Haitian capital, is under the control of armed gangs following political deterioration and the assassination of President Joe Van El-Moyese. The gangs, previously fighting each other, formed a coalition and turned against the government, leading to widespread chaos and violence. International efforts, including Kenyan police officers, are attempting to restore order, but challenges persist in pacifying the nation amid deep-rooted issues raised by gang leaders.
