UN: Haiti Unrest Harming Hospitals, Orphanages, Students

Associated Press

   PORT-AU-PRINCE, HAITI - Unrest in Haiti has disrupted hospitals,
   orphanages and emergency services while keeping some 2 million children
   from school, the United Nations said Wednesday.

   The warning from U.N. spokesman Stephane Djuarric came as there was a
   relative pause in disturbances that have wracked Haiti's capital for
   weeks as protesters have tried to drive President Jovenel Moise from
   power. People once again stood in line to buy gasoline and some banks
   and businesses cautiously reopened, despite scattered roadblocks formed
   by burning tires.
