Nearly 1.5 million displaced in Haiti: UN
- Gregoire Goodstein, IOM Chief of Mission in Haiti, reported that nearly 1.47 million people remain displaced, representing 12 percent of the country's population.
- Armed attacks are no longer confined to regular hotspots; renewed violence in the Cite Soleil district displaced more than 18,000 people in May, while attacks in the South-East Department recently displaced more than 5,000.
- More than 270,000 Haitians were forcibly returned in 2025, with another 110,000 arriving this year; nearly 10 percent of returnees are children, including unaccompanied minors and newborns.
- As the Atlantic hurricane season began on June 1, Goodstein warned that funding constraints "now threaten our ability to remain operational beyond October." He said displacement sites face severe flood risks.
- "Short-Term relief alone cannot meet the scale or persistence of this crisis, which has now been going for nearly five years," Goodstein said. Humanitarian agencies stress that lasting investment is essential for sustainable support.
