GANG TAKEOVER
Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince has been the site of a vicious gang war between major criminal groups and their allies since 2020.
The government of Haiti and Haitian security forces have struggled to maintain control of the city, with more than 200 gangs reportedly controlling up to 90% of the city by last year.
Residents are fighting every day to stay alive.

In March, gang violence spread throughout the capital as members fought to make acting prime minister Ariel Henry resign.
Gangs stormed two prisons, releasing thousands from behind bars - including Ti Greg, the boss of Delmas 95 gang - beginning a new dawn of violence that propelled Haiti toward the brink of collapse.
Thousands were slaughtered and reports emerged of widespread rape, arson, and kidnappings as warring groups united to carry out coordinated attacks.
The US military airlifted embassy staff from the country and rushed to bolster embassy security as dead bodies piled up on the streets.
Members of several diplomatic missions, including workers from the United States and the German ambassador, fled the capital.
The Haitian government declared a state of emergency and imposed a curfew, and acting PM Henry agreed to resign once a transitional government was formed.
Haiti's transition council took power in April, formalizing Henry's resignation, and the country began attempts to establish security.
But infamous warlord Jimmy "Barbecue" Cherizier remains as feared today as ever.
Barbecue, a murderous former top cop, is rumored to have earned his nickname for setting his victims on fire.
He heads the capital's most fearsome gang coalition, G9, and has long reigned terror over the poorest areas of the city.
