Gang wars have torn Haiti apart and forced over one million people from their homes. Armed groups have taken complete control of the capital city and cut off all airplane flights from other countries. The violence has gotten much worse since January with criminals killing more than 4,000 people. Women and young girls face terrible dangers from gang members who attack and abuse them. UN officials warn that the government might completely fall apart if nothing changes soon.

Dangerous gangs have spread their power far beyond Port-au-Prince and control every neighborhood. They block major roads and stop businesses from moving goods around the country. This has made the food shortage crisis even worse for millions of hungry families. Criminal groups have become so powerful that regular police cannot fight back against them. Government workers have lost almost all their authority to keep order.

Desperate citizens have started forming their own protection groups to defend their communities. Some of these vigilante teams work with the same gangs they claim to fight against. The chaos has created a huge black market for guns and military weapons. Gang members have also increased their sexual attacks on innocent people. Police recently raided a medical center after getting tips about criminals stealing human organs for profit.
