"Chaos and Crisis: Foreigners Stranded in Violence-Torn Haiti"

Dozens of foreigners, including many from the United States and Canada, are stranded in violence-torn Haiti, unable to leave as anti-government gangs battle police and shut down the country’s international airports. The situation has left them trapped in hotels and homes, with no way out by air, sea, or land. The violence has resulted in scores of deaths and left more than 15,000 people homeless. Despite the chaos, some foreigners, including missionaries and an adopting couple, have chosen to stay in Haiti due to personal reasons, while others are desperately trying to find a way to leave.
