News summary

Haitian Prime Minister Garry Conille narrowly escaped an armed gang attack on Monday while visiting the State University Hospital of Haiti in Port-au-Prince. Gunfire erupted as Conille was leaving the facility, prompting his convoy to flee under the protection of Haitian and Kenyan police forces, part of an international security effort. Fortunately, no injuries or deaths were reported during the incident, which unfolded in a neighborhood heavily influenced by gangs that control approximately 80% of the capital. This visit marked Conille's second to the hospital since it was reclaimed from gang control in July, where he had previously described the conditions as a 'war zone.' The ongoing violence from criminal groups has severely disrupted life in Haiti, leading to widespread fear and instability amidst efforts to restore order. Conille, who took office in June, is committed to reestablishing governmental authority in a country plagued by political and social turmoil.
