Canada and the United States have sent “security equipment”, including tactical and armoured vehicles, to Haiti to help the country tackle a political, economic and security crisis, according to a joint statement.

there are more than 560 suspected cases of cholera, some 300 hospitalisations and at least 35 deaths, with experts warning the numbers are likely much higher than what is being reported.

In mid-September, gangs surrounded a key fuel terminal to demand Prime Minister Ariel Henry’s resignation and to protest a spike in petroleum prices after his administration announced it could no longer afford to subsidise fuel. Last week, in an attempt to quell the violence and confront the gangs, Henry asked the international community to send military assistance. His plea was joined by UN chief Antonio Guterres who called for the immediate deployment of a special armed force.

In a video posted on Facebook early this month, the leader of the so-called G9 Family and Allies gang Jimmy “Barbecue” Cherizier read a proposed plan to stabilise Haiti that includes the creation of a “Council of Sages” with one representative from each of Haiti’s 10 departments.
