Real Streets of Delmas, Haiti – January 17, 2026

Walk the authentic streets of Delmas, Haiti, on January 17, 2026. Delmas is part of the Port-au-Prince metropolitan area on the Gulf of Gonâve, with over 2.6 million residents including nearby Pétion-Ville and Carrefour. This bustling hub serves as Haiti's primary commercial center, though port operations face disruptions. As of late 2025, Port-au-Prince grapples with a security crisis: armed gangs control 80-90% of the city, causing frequent violence, displacement, and a U.S. Level 4 'Do Not Travel' advisory due to kidnapping, crime, and unrest. A Kenya-led security mission assists local police amid humanitarian challenges like food shortages.
