A survivor of a recent gang attack on Haitian journalists described witnessing a brutal assault that left two reporters and one police officer dead, with seven journalists wounded. The attack occurred during the reopening of Port-au-Prince's largest public hospital, where members of the Viv Ansanm coalition of street gangs surrounded the premises and opened fire on those present.
The survivor, a photographer, recalled the chaos and devastation as bullets flew, injuring journalists with severe wounds to their heads and chests. Video footage captured the moment the metal gate outside the hospital buckled under the gunfire, prompting journalists to scramble for safety.
