☆ Five Armed Haiti Environment Agents Killed in Clash With Police
  + stars: | 2024-02-07 | by ( Feb. | At P.M. | ) www.usnews.com   time to read: +2 min
PORT-AU-PRINCE (Reuters) - At least five agents of Haiti's BSAP, an armed environmental agency that in recent years has evolved into a paramilitary body, were killed in a shootout with national police in Port-au-Prince on Wednesday, the police trade union told reporters. Haiti's national police did not immediately respond to a request for more details, or whether there had been any police casualties. Henry, who assumed power after the assassination of Haiti's last president in 2021, last week called on BSAP members to register with the country's environmental ministry in an apparent crackdown against the agency. Henry is expected to give a national address later on Wednesday. (Reporting by Harold Isaac and Steven Aristil in Port-au-Prince; Writing by Sarah Morland and Kylie Madry; Editing by Leslie Adlerby)

National police used tear gas to disperse protesters, who set fire to car tires, filling streets with clouds of gray smoke. Henry assumed power shortly after the assassination of the country's last president, Jovenel Moise, in 2021. "We are not here today to wage a war against Ariel Henry to replace him with someone else. We are here today to wage a war against the system." The head of the Human Rights Watch earlier this year estimated some 300,000 people are internally displaced due to the violence.

The United Nations estimates some 200,000 Haitians have been displaced amid escalating violence, with armed gangs carrying out indiscriminate killings, kidnappings, gang rapes and burning down people's homes. "When the military is in the country they rape women, they play with our precariousness," he said. "Those who talk about foreigners not treading on our soil – what have they done to give us security? For Adison, independence is not compatible with foreign military forces.

☆ Haiti police block streets, break into airport to protest officer killings

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Jan 26 (Reuters) - Haitian police officers on Thursday blocked streets and forced their way into the country's main airport to protest the recent killing of officers by armed gangs expanding their grip on the Caribbean nation. "PM is still at the Airport, unable to leave for now," said the source, who asked not to be identified. Haiti's National Police and the Prime Minister's Office did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Roads around Port-au-Prince and in several cities to the north were blocked by protesters. The proposal was originally made three months ago but no country has offered to lead such a force.
