Doctors Without Borders says that four of its vehicles came under fire while they evacuated staff from a hospital in Haiti’s capital as gang violence surges
Doctors Without Borders temporarily closed its Turgeau Emergency Center in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, after a convoy evacuating staff was attacked by gangs. Four vehicles were fired upon despite prior coordination with authorities, resulting in minor injuries to staff. This is the second such suspension in four months due to surging gang violence, which has left over a million people homeless in Haiti.
