Haiti: Civilians wounded, officers dead, stations vandalized, and airport seized

Prime Minister Ariel Henry is stuck in Kenya while Haitians are calling for his resignation. Reports state that chaos escalated as gunfights throughout Port-au-Prince left at least 19 citizens critically wounded, more than 5 police officers killed, police stations vandalized, cars and buses vandalized, airport seized, and prisoners freed. It's uncertain if this is a revolution to remove the PM or a new COUP.

As PM Henry in Kenya, the Haitian National Police agents began exchanging gunfire with armed men throughout the country's capital. The attacks, which left some civilians injured and police officers dead, targeted police officers, police stations, cars, the international airport, and the National Penitentiary.

Public opinion indicated that many residents believed that agents of the Haitian National Police were engaged in abuses and violations of human rights.

The execution of five agents of BSAP, a different Haitian law enforcement body, by HNP agents last month amid PM resignation rallies infuriated people throughout the nation. Haitians were infuriated to see other videos this week that went viral on social media and showed agents of the Haitian National Police executed anonymous civilians they were holding hostage.

The man in charge of G9, Jimmy Chérizier, alias Barbecue, used to be an elite police officer said he's the revolutionary behind the attacks which left citizens wounded and officers dead. The objective, he added, is to apprehend Haiti's ministers of government and police chief to stop Henry from coming back.

Henry was chosen Prime Minister by former President Jovenel Moise before his murder. The fifth judge, who was looking into the former leader's assassination, issued a final ruling that included the names of 51 individuals he claimed were involved.

Additionally, according to several sources, PM Henry and one of the suspects, Joseph Felix Badio, had phone conversations both before and after the killing.
