Chaos in Haiti: Hospitals Evacuated Amidst Armed Clashes

Hospitals in Haiti's troubled Cite Soleil neighborhood in Port-au-Prince were forced to evacuate their patients as violent clashes between armed groups intensified over the weekend.

The non-governmental organization, Doctors Without Borders (MSF), has suspended its activities after its hospital became a refuge for fleeing residents, leading to the unfortunate shooting of a security guard by a stray bullet.

In a dire situation, another hospital evacuated newborns from its intensive care unit, as the conflict in the area continued to escalate, reflecting the severe impacts of ongoing violence on local healthcare facilities.
