The gangs have also kidnapped hundreds of Haitians, and the government appears unable, or unwilling, to take them on.
Officials at the Saint Damien hospital, the capital’s foremost pediatrics center, said it had only three days of fuel left to run generators that power ventilators and medical equipment. The hospital can run partly on solar power, but that doesn’t provide enough electricity for all its needs. The United Nations Children’s Fund warned Sunday that “hundreds of women and children who seek emergency care in health facilities are at risk of dying if solutions are not found to the fuel shortage prevailing in Haiti for weeks due to insecurity.”
UNICEF said it had secured a contract with a local provider to supply hospitals in and around Port-au-Prince with 10,000 gallons of fuel. “But due to insecurity, the provider eventually declared he could transport fuel neither in the Haitian capital, nor in other provinces ... because many truck drivers no longer accept to ply the roads crossing gang-controlled areas for fear of being kidnapped and their truck hijacked.

Haiti gang leader threatens to kill kidnapped missionaries in videoThe leader of a Haitian gang accused of kidnapping 17 missionaries has threatened to kill them if its demands are not met, a new video apparently recorded Wednesday shows. My niece got attacked in Haiti a few years ago. She had gone there on missions many times since college. Needless to say, that was her last mission. Dangerous place. I don't see why missionaries go to dangerous countries. They put themselves at risk and their families.

The Clintons really destroyed that place and it's never been the same. Great evil spreads like a cancer.
