Doctors Without Borders says Haitian mission is compromised after execution of at least two patients

November 13, 2024
Médecins sans frontières (Doctors Without Borders) says its Haitian mission is compromised after law enforcement officers and members of a vigilante group executed at least two patients outside a Port-au-Prince hospital.Haitian police on Monday stopped an MSF ambulance transporting “three young people with gunshot wounds” about 100 metres from the MSF hospital in the Drouillard area of the capital, said Claudia Blume, a spokesperson for the independent international medical relief organization. Police forced the ambulance to go instead to Hôpital La Paix, a public hospital.“Once there, law enforcement officers and members of a self-defence group surrounded the ambulance, slashed the tires, and tear-gassed MSF personnel inside the vehicle to force them out,” the statement says. “They then took the wounded patients a short distance away, outside the hospital grounds, where at least two of them were executed.”
