Haitian gangs escalate violence as families grieve massacre victims

Armed gangs have intensified attacks in Haiti, particularly in the town of Arcahaie, as families mourn victims of a recent massacre in Pont-Sonde. Residents are calling for increased security amid ongoing violence from Jeff Larose's Canaan gang. The situation has worsened, with over 700,000 people displaced and millions facing food shortages. A UN-approved security force has seen limited deployment, allowing gangs to expand their control. In Pont-Sonde, at least 115 people were killed in a recent attack, with police arriving hours later. Local officials criticized the government's response, while the Dominican Republic has increased deportations of Haitians amid the crisis.
