Haiti has descended into anarchy as gangs continue to terrorize the Caribbean nation. Heavily armed gangs have taken over airports, police stations, and prisons, causing thousands of inmates to escape and authorities to declare a state of emergency. At the center of violence is Jimmy Cherizier—the leader of the notorious "G9 and Family" gang—who has threatened civil war if Prime Minister Ariel Henry does not resign. Henry is currently in Puerto Rico after his plane was denied permission to land.
