At least 30 people were killed in a stampede at Haiti's Citadelle Laferrière on April 11, 2026, during an annual Easter celebration that drew large crowds of young people to the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The disaster exposed the total absence of crowd safety infrastructure at the fortress — no visitor cap, no timed entry, no emergency plan — and raised questions about whether international donors who spent 25 years preserving the site's walls ever allocated resources to protect the people inside them.
