Port-au-Prince capital taken hostage by brutal gangs

Port-au-Prince is nestled between green hillsides and the blue waters of the Caribbean which has no head of state, no functioning parliament and the US-backed prime minister, Ariel Henry, is unelected and deeply unpopular. Almost half the population 4.7 million Haitians – are facing acute hunger. In the capital around 20,000 people are facing famine-like conditions. Competing gangs are carving up the Haitian capital, kidnapping, raping, and killing at will. They demarcate their territory in blood. Cross from one gang’s turf to another, and you may not make it back. Do you think that the international community need to intervene ?
