The United States has condemned the massacre of nearly 200 people in Haiti by criminal gangs, calling the act horrific and urging international support to address the escalating violence.
The United States has strongly condemned a recent gang-led massacre in Haiti that left about 200 people dead, describing the event as "horrific" and "disheartening."
Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre expressed deep sorrow over the reports, emphasizing the senselessness of the killings. “We are horrified by the reporting that nearly 200 people in Haiti were needlessly massacred by self-serving criminal gang members,” she said.
The massacre occurred in the Cite Soleil area, targeting mostly elderly residents, according to Haiti's Prime Minister’s Office. Reports suggest the attack was ordered by a gang leader who believed his child had been harmed through witchcraft.
Jean-Pierre urged the international community to support Haiti by backing the Kenyan-led multinational security mission aimed at addressing the country’s escalating gang violence.
Haiti’s government continues to struggle with widespread gang control in and around the capital, with armed groups implicated in indiscriminate killings, mass kidnappings, sexual violence, and worsening food shortages. The massacre highlights the critical need for coordinated international intervention to address the growing crisis.
