Armed men seized the bus that was transporting the nuns. The vehicle was driven to an unknown destination. The bishop of Anse-à-Veau et Miragoâne, Monsignor Dumas: “Act of barbarism, which does not respect the dignity of consecrated women”, asks for the release of all the kidnapped women and offers himself as a hostage in their place.
Jean-Charles Putzolu – Vatican City
The Haitian capital is experiencing an increase in violence to the point that some neighborhoods have been cordoned off in recent days. According to local sources, six nuns from the Sisters of Sainte-Anne congregation were kidnapped along with other people, including the driver, when they were aboard a bus heading to the university in the capital, Port-au-Prince. The vehicle was stopped by armed men who boarded the bus and took all the passengers hostage. The kidnapping took place on Friday, January 19, in broad daylight and in the center of the capital.
Outrage of the Haitian Church
The kidnapping, confirmed by a press release from the Conference of Religious of Haiti, has also been strongly denounced by Monsignor Pierre-André Dumas, bishop of Anse-à-Veau and Miragoâne, who condemns “with vigor and firmness this latest hateful act and barbaric, which does not even respect the dignity of these consecrated women who give themselves wholeheartedly to God to educate and form the young, the poorest and most vulnerable in our society.
In the note, the bishop asks for the release of the hostages and an end to “these despicable and criminal practices.” He then invites “the entire Haitian society to unite to form a true chain of solidarity around all the people kidnapped in the country, to obtain their release and guarantee their quick and safe return to their families and loved ones.” Dumas He even offers himself as a hostage instead.
Increase in violence
A group of young Haitians, brought to Italy by the missionary Maddalena Boschetti, who has lived in the country for more than 20 years, participated in the general audience on Wednesday…
Armed gangs have intensified their murderous actions since last Sunday, while demonstrations once morest insecurity in the country are organized. On Thursday, the Solino neighborhood, south of Port-au-Prince, was the scene of violent shootouts between rival gangs and, in particular, an armed group from the neighboring Bel-Air neighborhood. According to the local head of a human rights organization, the clashes left around twenty dead.
Other neighborhoods in the capital, such as Carrefour Péan and Delmas 24, were also targets of gang attacks. On the streets of Port-au-Prince, residents have set up barricades to protect themselves. Kidnappings have also increased in Port-au-Prince for several weeks. Last week, a doctor and a justice of the peace were kidnapped before being released following paying a ransom.
Demonstrations once morest precariousness At the same time, anti-government demonstrations have been shaking the country for several days, at the call of Guy Philippe, former police chief and politician, who has returned to Haiti following serving a sentence in the United States for money laundering related to drug trafficking. Protesters demand the resignation of Prime Minister Ariel Henry, in power since the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse in 2021, accusing him of his inaction in leading the country, both economically and security-wise.

Thomas Dreßen celebrates an emotional farewell as a skier on the Streif run in Kitzbühel. Felix Neureuther feels goosebumps – tears flow.
Kitzbühel – Tears to say goodbye: Thomas Dreßen, Germany’s most successful downhill skier in history with five World Cup victories, rode the Hahnenkamm race for the last time on Saturday. The German ski ace is calling it a day, but once he wanted to throw himself down the Streif run. After the last race in Dreßen there were tears, Felix Neureuther also felt for him – the most successful German skier with 13 individual victories was even speechless.

Dreßen’s emotional end to his career on the Streif downhill run in Kitzbühel
At the finish line, Thomas Dreßen was greeted by numerous colleagues, companions and his family with his wife and baby and carried on their shoulders. After a great career there was also a kiss from his wife and a champagne shower. Pure emotions in Kitzbühel.
“I wanted to enjoy the ride, so I did. It wasn’t until ten meters before the finish line that I realized: That was it. I’m proud of the last trip,” said the 30-year-old with moist eyes following his farewell trip in an interview with ARD. “I wanted to say goodbye to everyone.” Felix Neureuther, who was at Dreßen’s side, became emotional as co-commentator shortly following crossing the finish line.

Goosebumps farewell to Dreßen on the Kitzbühel descent: Felix Neueuther “can’t talk anymore”
“Enjoy this driveway, this steep slope once more, even if there isn’t that much to enjoy. What a crazy guy, Thomas Dreßen! Probably the man with the most feeling in this World Cup circus. Now please just enjoy it. Hear the audience,” said Neureuther on the ARD microphone during Dreßen’s last shot.
“Thank you Thomas Dreßen for the wonderful moments you gave us. Thanks! Goosebumps!”, Germany’s best slalom skier paid tribute to the best downhill skier in German history, then Neureuther was speechless: “I have tears in my eyes, I can’t talk anymore.”

Germany’s best skier Dreßen has to end his career following injuries
After Dreßen announced the end of his career on Thursday and skipped the shortened Kitzbühel descent on Friday, the man from Garmisch wanted to enjoy the Hahnenkamm Race once once more to the fullest. To say goodbye to the ski circus with dignity.
“I have to say thank you, it was an incredible time, with ups and downs. Of course it’s a shame that it’s over. It was always clear to me that I would ride as long as I had fun or my body cooperated,” said a relieved and happy Dreßen. “But there is also life followingward, which is more important to me. I want to raise my children to be sporty myself, and that requires a healthy dad.” The man from Garmisch repeatedly had to struggle with serious injuries; in Wengen, Dreßen was close to tears when Germany’s ski ace suffered a bitter setback.
Dreßen farewell live on ARD: Neureuther fights back tears once more
Neureuther fought back tears once more: “I have tears in my eyes once more. When you stop and come back, all the memories will come back. I had goosebumps, we mightn’t even talk anymore. Thank you for great moments.”
Dreßen will almost certainly come back, as he announced. As a spectator, but perhaps one day also in an official capacity. “Skiing is my life, my great passion. I hope that I can continue to do something in skiing in the future, that would really appeal to me,” said Dreßen. With the Kitzbühel winner from 2018, the DSV is losing its big figurehead as an active driver. Now he can devote himself to other things besides his family; Dreßen recently completed a 150-kilometer cycling marathon. (ck)
