As per details, the premier was targeted by “bandits and terrorists” who opened fire at a church in the northern city of Gonaives.
Country’s local media reported that one person was killed and two people sustained injuries in the mayhem that may be gang-related.
Before Saturday’s shooting, a local gang boss made threats to the Ariel Henry through media reports.
In the meantime, Haitian PM’s office said that arrest warrants have been issued for the suspected shooters.
Henry was sworn as premier in less than two weeks after President Jovenel Moise was assassinated in July. His administration, hence, faced increased challenges to its legitimacy.
Since Jovenel Moise killing, a security breakdown in the country has reportedly allowed gangs to exert more power over Port-au-Prince and its suburbs, where nearly half of the country lives.
Since the killing of Moise, the collapse of national security has reportedly allowed gangs to exercise more power over Port-au-Prince and its suburbs, where almost half of the country lives.
