The alleged human rights violations range from unauthorized home raids to racial profiling to deporting breastfeeding mothers and unaccompanied minors.

U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said in a report that gangs in Haiti could overrun the capital, leading to a complete breakdown of government, without additional international support.

Street gangs forced the General Hospital in Port-au-Prince to close earlier this year. As journalists gathered to cover its reopening, suspected gang members opened fire.

A gang leader who controls a key port in Haiti's capital is accused of massacring older people and Vodou religious leaders to avenge his son's death.

Residents have been angered by the latest gang attacks. Violence forced Haiti's main airport to shut down last week after the country swore in a new prime minister.

Violence has exploded in Port-au-Prince since Sunday when the Haiti's interim prime minister was fired amid political infighting.

The shootings were part of a wave of violence that erupted as the country plagued by gang violence swore in its new prime minister after a politically tumultuous process.

Haiti's international airport shut down temporarily after gangs opened fire at a Spirit Airlines flight landing in Port-Au-Prince. The latest violence came as a new prime minister was sworn in.

It marks even more turmoil in an already rocky democratic transition process for Haiti, which hasn't held democratic elections in years in a large part due to the soaring levels of gang violence.

The attack on residents of Pont-Sondé on Oct. 3 was one of the biggest massacres that Haiti has seen in recent history. The U.N. had previously said that at least 70 people were killed.
