Gang clashes in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, kill civilians
Armed gangs confronted each other in a dense neighborhood of Port-au-Prince, killing at least several dozen civilians and injuring many more in street clashes.
On April 11, 2026, rival criminal gangs engaged in fierce street fighting in a densely populated area of Port-au-Prince, Haiti, leading to numerous civilian casualties. Unconfirmed reports indicate that at least several dozen people were killed and dozens injured, many of whom were not directly involved in the conflict. The clashes followed a breakdown in informal truces and highlighted the growing risk to non‑combatant residents caught in the crossfire of expanding gang control. Humanitarian organizations warn of worsening displacement and restricted access to medical care.
