Kidnappers Release 2 Of 17 Missionaries Abducted In Haiti

A group of missionaries kidnapped in Haiti over a month ago have been freed, as reported by Christian Aid Ministries. However, 15 people, including five children and a Haitian driver, remain captive by the 400 Mawazo gang. The gang leader has threatened to kill the hostages unless a ransom of $1,000,000 per person is paid. This incident is part of a larger trend, with over 800 kidnappings reported in Haiti this year.
