February 13, 2023 GMTA woman who did not want to give her name for fear of retaliation poses for a photo during an interview at a clinic near Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Friday, Jan. 20, 2023. The 36-year-old sent her two children to live with family in another part of the city after her husband was kidnapped and killed. Later, the men gang-raped her and forced her to flee her home.
