About a month after the installation of the Conille government, gangs have begun emerging from their period of observation and have resumed their attacks on a defenseless population. In Gressier, over the past weekend, they showed no mercy to residents who couldn't flee in time. In downtown Croix-des-Bouquets, they attacked state authority by setting fire to the town hall. In Port-au-Prince, reports indicate repeated attacks against the population of Solino.

Each gang attack brings a toll of victims among the population, including members of the Haitian National Police. Information from sources close to the police indicates that two high-ranking police officers were murdered in Carrefour on Thursday, July 5.
