Haiti malnutrition crisis kills young children across mountains
In Baie d’Orange and Port-au-Prince, malnourished children die or near death as storms destroy crops and livestock. Doctors Without Borders reports 26 deaths in four weeks among severely malnourished children, with 65 more treated in makeshift clinics and hospitals. Food aid faces access barriers, though WFP and USAID partners have delivered supplies for about 5,800 people over two weeks.

Officials note up to 70 percent of water bills go to landscaping while some ban artificial turf and others promote native plants. Rebates tempt removal of real grass for fake grass, lawns, and drought-friendly designs amid a shift toward water-wise landscapes.
