TL;DR Summary

Armed gangs stormed Haiti's main prison, leading to a mass jailbreak with hundreds of inmates fleeing and at least five people dead.

The chaos follows a series of violent protests and delays in holding parliamentary and presidential elections, with gangs controlling much of the capital and claiming responsibility for the attacks.
