NPR reports from inside Haiti, as gangs unleash another day of violence in the country's capital. It comes as political groups try to form a transitional council.

The U.S. government announced that it charged Mario Antonio Palacios, a 43-year-old former Colombian soldier who is one of the main suspects in the July killing of Haitian president Jovenel Moïse.

With gangs controlling the most destitute areas of the capital, Port-au-Prince, Haitians say the country's greatest need is safety. Many blame Jovenel Moïse for the collapse of law and order.
