Guns trafficked from the U.S. are exacerbating violence in Haiti, with a UN report revealing an influx of various weapons, including AK47s and machine guns, into Port-au-Prince. The escalating armed violence has led to Haitians fleeing the capital en masse, seeking support in places like Houston. The situation is further compounded by deadly malnutrition, insecurity, blocked roads, and a failing health system, as highlighted by UNICEF. Amid the chaos, concerns are raised about the impact on Haiti's children and the future of the country.
