In Port-au-Prince, nearly three million people are living in the grips of an asphyxiating gang war. The crisis continues despite the arrival of the first Kenyan police officers as part of a UN-backed multinational force to stem the violence.

FRANCE 24 flew into Port-au-Prince by helicopter this May, when the international airport was still closed, and spent weeks filming on the ground in and around the Haitian capital.
