Deadly Prison Break in Saint-Marc, Haiti
A deadly prison break in Saint-Marc, Haiti, resulted in the deaths of around a dozen inmates amid an ongoing UN-backed anti-gang crackdown. The breakout, marked by gunfire and flames, was reportedly fueled by inmates' protests over dire living conditions, including food shortages. The prison break has raised concerns about potential complicity of prison guards, as they were on strike demanding better conditions. This incident is the third prison break this year in Haiti, a country grappling with severe gang violence and overcrowded prisons. Despite the presence of 400 Kenyan police officers as part of a multinational mission, gang violence continues to plague the region. Local authorities have asked the public for assistance in identifying escaped inmates.
