What impact is gang violence having on children in Haiti according to the Amnesty International report?

According to Amnesty International's report, gang violence in Haiti has devastated childhood, with interviews of 51 children aged 10-17 revealing horrific experiences. Many children reported being coerced into working for violent gangs, while young girls described being subjected to sexual violence, including rape, as a means of survival for themselves and their families. Amnesty International characterized the violent environment in Port au Prince as "nothing short of an attack on childhood." The report highlights how gangs are systematically destroying children's lives through coercion and violence, creating a crisis that threatens the safety, wellbeing, and future of Haiti's youth.
