Residents of Port-au-Prince, Haiti, are facing escalating violence as gang members clash with police in the Solino neighborhood, one of the few areas not fully controlled by gangs. The ongoing violent firefight between the Viv Ansanm coalition and police has forced families to flee their homes, with many packing their belongings and leaving the area in fear.
The violence erupted following the dismissal of the interim prime minister by Haiti's transitional council amid political turmoil. The country has been grappling with political instability, with no elections held since 2016 due to the pervasive gang violence.
