Security Council. &#8220;Port-au-Prince is now almost completely sealed off because of air, sea and land blockades.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Haiti is preparing for the installation of a nine-member council to take over from Prime Minister Ariel Henry, who pledged to step down on March 11 while stranded outside the country and under pressure from the United States. Haiti&#8217;s gangs, many of which have grouped together under an alliance known as &#8220;Viv Ansanm&#8221; (Living Together), have said their siege on the capital was a battle to oust Henry, but since his announcement there has been little let-up in attacks.<\/p>\n<p>Viv Ansanm gangs were fighting police around the National Palace on Monday, local media reported. The transitional council is set to be installed in the palace, though the date has yet to be confirmed. &#8220;Since March 8, close to 100,000 Haitians have left Port-au-Prince for the regions, escaping gang violence in search of security,&#8221; U.N. special envoy on Haiti Maria Isabel Salvador told the Security Council. &#8220;Food insecurity also remains rampant across the country, with half of the population suffering from severe food insecurity,&#8221; she said, adding that a U.N. appeal for $674 million for 2024 was only 8% funded.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/americas\/un-warns-haitis-capital-blockaded-no-aid-malnourished-children-2024-04-22\/\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/americas\/un-warns-haitis-capital-blockaded-no-aid-malnourished-children-2024-04-22\/\">Reuters<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vaufien\/un-warns-haitis-capital-blockaded-no-aid-for-malnourished-children\/\">UN warns Haiti\u2019s capital blockaded, no aid for malnourished children<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[4917,14266,402,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-129955","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-haiti","tag-malnourished-children","tag-un","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129955","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=129955"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129955\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129955"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=129955"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=129955"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
