More than 40,000 people fled their homes in Port-au-Prince in the space of just ten days this month, according to the International Organization for Migration. The Haitian capital is witnessing a spike in gang violence despite the presence of a multinational security mission.
On Monday the International Organization for Migration described the exodus as the worst wave of displacement in two years, with a total of 40,965 people in Port-au-Prince on the move between November 11 and 20 – some for the second or third time.
