Haiti's most notorious gang leader plots its future amid rebellion

An armed rebellion in Haiti led by prominent figure Jimmy Chérizier, also known as “Barbecue,” demands the resignation of acting Prime Minister Ariel Henry to temporarily halt violence. The alliance of gangs orchestrated attacks on government institutions, resulting in chaos and destruction. Barbecue aims to overthrow Henry and combat corrupt governance. Despite his controversial past and criminal accusations, Barbecue presents himself as a champion of the people against injustice and economic inequality. Haiti’s situation is dire, with daily life disrupted, leading to fear, hunger, and limited access to necessities. As tensions rise, efforts are made to find a political solution, including pressure on Henry to transition power to a new council. The role of armed groups in Haiti’s future and the potential for stability and elections remain uncertain.
