Food insecurity is deepening in Haiti, as the appointment of a new prime minister has not yet translated into the countering of the gangs currently controlling vast swaths of the country, including 80% of the capital, a new report by France24 showed.
According to the outlet, almost half of all Haitians are now suffering from acute food insecurity, and the trend is only worsening. The United Nations' World Food Programme (WFP) said it might not be able to continue delivering the already insufficient aid due to a massive deficit in funding.
