A United Nations report by the Integrated Office in Haiti (BINUH) states that at least 1,642 people were killed and 745 injured in Haiti during the first three months of 2026, with insecurity worsening beyond the capital into regions such as Artibonite and Centre. Gang violence continues to spread, involving widespread human rights abuses including targeted killings, kidnappings, extortion, and property destruction. One incident involved a 13-year-old allegedly executed for flying a kite. Coordinated gang attacks in Lower Artibonite reportedly killed 83 residents and injured 38. Gang members accounted for 27% of victims, while over 69% of deaths and injuries resulted from security force operations, sometimes supported by a private military company deploying drone strikes, which caused civilian casualties including children. Sexual violence, primarily affecting women and girls aged 12 to 17, was also documented. Despite the security challenges, some judicial progress was noted, with the appointment of judges and prosecutors to combat mass and financial crimes.
In the Occupied Palestinian Territory, health conditions are deteriorating in Gaza and the West Bank due to overcrowded shelters, waste accumulation, and shortages of basic supplies. The UN agency for Palestine refugees (UNRWA) indicates rising cases of scabies, chickenpox, and other skin diseases in Gaza. Reports also mention increased rat bites at health clinics, particularly in Khan Younis, Gaza City, and North Gaza, heightening concerns over disease outbreaks and sanitation risks.
