An aid agency UNICEF reported that a container carrying critical supplies for newborn babies and mothers was looted in Port-au-Prince amidst escalating gang violence and a deepening humanitarian crisis. The looted container contained essential items such as resuscitators, maternity and neonatal supplies, early childhood development and education materials, and water equipment.
UNICEF stated that over 260 humanitarian-owned containers at the port are now under the control of armed groups that breached the main port. The theft of these supplies comes at a crucial time when children are in dire need of life-saving support.
