"Haiti's Ongoing Crisis: Gang Attacks Plunge Parts into Darkness and Spark Political Dilemma"

Armed groups in Haiti attacked several electrical stations, leaving parts of the capital, Port-au-Prince, in darkness by stealing equipment and documents.

The attacks come amid rising political tension and violence, with armed groups escalating murders, rapes, and kidnappings since the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse in 2021. The current crisis adds to Haiti's ongoing recovery from past natural disasters, including the devastating earthquakes in 2010 and 2021.

Coal miners in southeastern Ukraine work around the clock to extract coal to power the country's war effort and provide civilians with light and heat. Coal is central to meeting Ukraine's energy needs following the Russian military's campaign to destroy power stations and other infrastructure. The work of the coal miners cannot fully compensate for the loss of energy from nuclear power plants, but every megawatt they generate reduces gaps.

Coal is central to meeting Ukraine's energy needs following the Russian military's campaign to destroy power stations and other infrastructure.
