Haiti's once-illustrious Grand Hôtel Oloffson has been burned down by gangs this past weekend. The beloved Gothic gingerbread home in Port-au-Prince that inspired books, hosted parties until dawn and attracted visitors from Mick Jagger to Haitian presidents. Hundreds mourned the news as it began to spread across social media.

A gang leader who controls a key port in Haiti’s capital is accused of massacring older people and Vodou religious leaders in his community to avenge his son's death.

Gangs in Haiti have opened fire and hit a U.N. helicopter, forcing it to land in Port-au-Prince in the latest attack in the country's capital as violence surges once again.

A new report has found that nearly 6,000 people in Haiti are starving, with nearly half the country’s population of more than 11 million people experiencing crisis levels of hunger or worse, as gang violence smothers life in the capital of Port-au-Prince and beyond.

The first U.N.-backed contingent of foreign police officers has arrived in Haiti nearly two years after the troubled Caribbean country urgently requested help to quell a surge in gang violence.

A proposal to install new leadership in Haiti appears to be crumbling as some political parties rejected the plan to create a presidential council that would manage the transition.

Haitian Prime Minister Ariel Henry has announced he will resign once a transitional presidential council is created, bowing to international pressure that seeks to save the country overwhelmed by violent gangs that some experts say have unleashed a low-scale civil war.
