Port-au-Prince, 29 August 2025 – We can confirm that Gena Heraty and the seven Haitian nationals have now been released and reunited with their loved ones.
This has been an extremely traumatic episode for all involved. Thankfully, it has come to a safe resolution.
The safety and wellness of the eight individuals held hostage has always been the priority. To protect the identities and personal safety of the seven Haitian nationals, we will not be publicly sharing their names. We kindly ask that the privacy of all
individuals and their families be respected at this time, allowing them the space to
recover.
We would like to thank the families and friends of the NPH and St. Luke Family, and
all those who have provided support and prayers in recent days.
With this resolution, St. Damien Pediatric Hospital and St. Luke Hospital will re-open
their services to the community.
We will not be commenting further for the time being.
