EARTH · VERIFIED CONFLICT RECORD

Conflict in Haiti

NOT LIVE · HAITI RECORD RUNS 1 JAN 2024 27 MAY 2026

This is a verified record, not a live feed. UCDP hand-codes every event from published sources, which takes weeks — the newest event here is from 2026-05-31. For what is happening right now, LEV’s Global Incidents layer carries the machine-coded newswire at about fifteen minutes’ delay.

Between 1 Jan 2024 and 27 May 2026, researchers at Uppsala University hand-coded 354 events of organised violence in Haiti from published sources. Their best estimate is 4,059 people killed — and their own range runs 3,810–4,255, which is the honest width of what anyone actually knows.

What the record holds

DEATHS RECORDED · UCDP BEST ESTIMATE4,059

UCDP range 3,810–4,255. On 1of these events UCDP’s own bounds do not bracket its own best estimate; the range above spans everything it published rather than hiding the conflict in the figures.

EVENTS354

330 placed precisely enough to map; 24 counted but not pinned, because UCDP could place them no closer than a province.

Who was doing the killing

State-based155 events · 1,531 killed (UCDP range 1,375–1,672)A government is one of the sides — a civil war or a war between states.
Non-state11 events · 257 killedTwo armed groups fight each other and neither is a government — militias, cartels, communal violence.
One-sided188 events · 2,271 killed (UCDP range 2,178–2,326)An armed group or government kills civilians who are not fighting back.
