International security support to Haiti may well be an important part of the solution, but it will likely only be effective as part of a multi-faceted response, with strong human rights safeguards. Here are 10 key components of the response, as outlined in our new @hrw report ⬇️

Jodi dimanch lan, 2 videyo ap sikile sou WA. 1 kote bandi ap bat yon fanm pou jouk yo kase bra li. 1 lòt kote yon jenn gason 30 lane mete dife sou tèt li, nan Vètyè, Okap. Tou 2 tradui dram n ap viv nan peyi a. Se yon konplo kont lavi ki gen nan peyi a. #Ayiti 💔

2,845 people have been killed in the 21 months since Ariel Henry has been in charge of the country, from July 2021 to April 2023, according to a report from FJKL. More than 16 massacres and armed attacks were perpetrated, 9 journalists and media collaborators murdered #Haiti
De juillet 2021 à avril 2023, 2845 personnes ont tuées durant ces 21 derniers mois depuis qu’Ariel Henry est à la tête du pays. C'est ce qu'a fait savoir la FJKL dans un rapport publié ce mardi. Selon l'organisation, plus de 16 massacres et attaques armées ont été perpétrés, 9 journalistes et collaborateurs de médias assassinés. La FJKL qui pense que le PM Ariel Henry a failli à sa mission consistant à protéger la population civile, estime qu'aucun appel à la raison ne peut être entendu d’autant que son Gouvernement a fait de l’exécution sommaire un élément de sa politique de justice.

For 15 years, we’ve been fighting in Haiti to find justice and could never find it,” Juders Ysemé. Every time they thought they had a court date in Haiti, Viliena used his influence to thwart justice. “They never called him before the courts.” #Haiti miamiherald.com/news/nation-… – at Boston, MA
