Gangs attacked Pétionville, an upscale district of Port-au-Prince, early Tuesday, led by Jimmy Chérizier, a gang leader also known as "Barbecue." Residents and police joined forces, killing 28 suspected gang members.
The attack is part of an escalating spiral of violence, with gangs now controlling 85% of the capital and displacing over 20,000 people. Despite the presence of a Kenyan UN-backed mission, the situation has worsened, prompting calls for an international peacekeeping force to address the crisis and restore stability in Haiti.
