There’s something off to me about the media exclusively referring to them as gangs.

I think that “strongmen” or maybe “warlords” is normally reserved for people who control a lot more territory than this.

Each group here controls tiny patches of territory.

By 2022, researchers estimated that about 200 gangs operated across Haiti. Of these, half were located in Port-au-Prince. The more influential gangs control large swathes of territory, including entire municipalities and communes.
