Americans looking to escape violence in Haiti fear there is no way out

The US State Department has deployed a FAST team to the US Embassy in Haiti due to escalating violence. Non-essential personnel have been evacuated, but some Americans, including a missionary family, remain trapped. The family, running an orphanage, is unable to leave due to flight cancellations and unsafe routes. The US has limited security measures in place, with Marines securing the embassy. The political instability in Haiti, marked by gang violence, poses challenges for citizens and foreigners. Concerns are rising about a potential migrant crisis, prompting Florida to increase coastal patrols.
