The situation in Haiti worsened as the de facto Prime Minister, Ariel Henry, went on an “official visit” abroad, to Kenya, to sign an illegal agreement without consultation.
Violence broke out in Port-au-Prince on Thursday, killing several people, including five police officers, and leading to the suspension of air operations. At least twenty projectiles were fired towards the international airport and Guy Malary, hitting three planes on the runway.
The G9 gangs and their allies, accused of acting “ on behalf of the government, sowed chaos in defiance of state authority and proved the need for the “programmed” deployment of the multinational force in favor of Ariel Henry“, according to numerous denunciations.
However, despite the apparent return to calm on Friday morning, although gunshots were heard throughout the night, the authorities Haitian women are facing growing criticism, because the police, very active against the anti-Ariel demonstrations, are not always able to reconquer the spaces controlled by the gangs since Thursday morning until today.
« This is to demonstrate the incapacity of the police“, confides a trade unionist from the SPNH, denouncing the fact that the top brass pull out all the stops during anti-government demonstrations. “ Today we are caught in a conspiracy“, he declared calling his colleagues “ to open their eyes«
Furthermore, according to the human rights organization NEHRO, Ariel Henry has neither legitimacy nor authority to sign international agreements on behalf of the country, stressing that his “ legal bandit regime is at the root of all the persistent political tensions in Haiti«.
