Haiti crippled by fuel shortages as gang leader demands PM resign |
2021-10-27 |
[JPost] Somebody's overreaching. Time to send in the lethal help Haiti's streets were unusually quiet on Tuesday and gasoline stations remained dry as gangs blocked the entrance to ports that hold fuel stores and the country's main gang boss demanded that Prime Minister Ariel Henry resign. Days-long fuel shortages have left Haitians with few transportation options and forced the closure of some businesses. Hospitals, which rely on diesel generators to ensure electricity due to constant blackouts, may shut down as well. |

#1 Haiti Crippled by Fuel Shortages as Gang Leader Demands Rival Gang Leader Resign Time to send in the lethal help It sounds so harsh when you put it like that. Mr Gang Boss just needs to have things explained in a way he can understand. Given that gang gangs are probably a bit more lethal than the government gang, likely outside help will be needed. Anyone got the phone number for Wagner Group? |
