BiggerHaitian mothers face hunger and unsafe births
Port-au-Prince, (EFE).- Pregnant women in Haiti are giving birth in unsanitary camps without medical care, often struggling to feed themselves and their newborns. Many pregnancies are the result of gang rapes, as armed groups now control most of Port-au-Prince. A UN report documented at least 628 cases of sexual violence between April and June, including sexual slavery, trafficking, and child exploitation.
The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) warns that Haiti’s health system is on the brink of collapse, after years of conflict, looting, and financial breakdown. With 1.3 million people displaced and over 5.7 million suffering from acute hunger, pregnant women and new mothers remain among the most vulnerable, facing malnutrition and life-threatening conditions without adequate aid.
Fix it from within, not by exporting the problem and associated costs to the Dominican Republic. I do feel for these people but ignoring and passing on the problems will not correct them. The government of Haiti is responsible for this mess.
Survival of the fittest! The world is a jungle! Haitians should be sent back home all at once. They need to fight the oligarchy of their country who put guns in the gangsters hands and kill both the oligarchy and the gangsters in order to make their lives better
they can reopen their hospitals with help from the imf and international community. where is kenya on this issue?
