The UN agency for the protection of children reports a significant increase in the recruitment of children by gangs in Haiti. UNICEF estimates that children now make up 30 to 50 per cent of the country’s gang members. Gangs already control 85 per cent of Port-au-Prince and, with more children on the frontline, aim to take full control of the capital. For Haiti’s children—millions caught in the crossfire, unable to attend school, or driven to join armed gangs due to extreme poverty—the situation is particularly dire.
