It was announced that nearly half of those who lost their lives were residents of the city who had no connection with the gangs.
Clashes are concentrated in the Cite Soleil neighborhood.
Two gangs, G9 and G-Pep, are fighting each other for control of this neighborhood, he says.
In the country where violence has been experienced for years, these incidents have increased after the murder of President Jovenel Moise by mercenaries last year.
One of the city dwellers described the situation as “a cycle of fear, stress and helplessness”.

The UN announced that 254 people were injured in the region, and about half of them were not affiliated with the gangs.
“I turn on the music so that I don’t hear the clashes, but when the guns explode very close to my house, it’s impossible not to hear it,” said a youth who told the UN about his experiences.
It is stated that around 3 thousand residents of the city have left their homes, and some of their houses have been burned and destroyed in the clashes.
Some city residents, on the other hand, want to leave the city in order not to be in the middle of the conflict, but cannot do so.
