Reports indicate that at least five police officers have been injured, with one of them sustaining serious injuries. As of now, intense gunfire continues in the area, accompanied by fierce clashes between gang members and the police in the main public square of Port-au-Prince, Champs de Mars, which is in close proximity to the National Palace. The armed assailants, affiliated with the ‘Live Together’ coalition led by the influential Jimmy Cherizier, also known as ‘Barbecue’, have succeeded in setting fire to a National Police armored vehicle near the National Palace.

    These groups are co-opting socialist and communist language. There is evidence their leader, a former police officer, has participated in massacres of civilians. These people only want power to exploit the Haitian populace.

    A former officer of the Haitian National Police (HNP), Cherizier has been linked to various human rights violations and fatal attacks against civilians, according to multiple reports by media outlets, international observers and rights groups.

        Do you have anything showing or saying otherwise besides the groups themselves?

          Not really, just my general intuition to believe the opposite of what the media tells me, especially when the us state dept is involved
