4Q of 2023 saw over 2,300 killed or kidnapped according to a UN report, as troubled Caribbean nation sees dramatic surge in violence amidst chaotic territorial gang disputes.
Authorities said fights occurred within a powerful gang federation known as G-9 Family and Allies, which also targeted an opposition gang coalition called G-Pep.
"In addition to the loss of human life, the humanitarian toll of the clashes was disastrous: over 1,000 people were forced to abandon their homes and take refuge in nearby areas," stated the report by the United Nations Integrated Office in Haiti, known as BINUH.
