A consular source who spoke to the Spanish news agency EFE, said that due to the wave of violence that has intensified in recent weeks in Port-au-Prince, France has ordered the withdrawal of close to the diplomats from its Embassy in Haiti.
This same source adds that it was also decided to close the Lycée français de Port-au-Prince...
In response to questions from EFE, the French Embassy refused to make official statements, confirming or denying the withdrawal of relatives of diplomats stationed in Haiti...
The Lycée français also refused to answer EFE's questions without specifying whether it remained open or would close, having undoubtedly received instructions for the media...
Let's recall that the violence has intensified in recent weeks with the outbreak on April 24 of a war between the "400 Mawozo" and "Chen Mechan" gangs for control of several neighborhoods in the north of Port-au-Prince https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-36600-haiti-flash-gang-atrocities-on-the-population-the-number-of-victims-on-the-rise-partial-report.html including the last partial assessment amounted to 148 dead, several dozen injured, 80 houses and around fifty vehicles burned... At least 9,000 people were forced to leave their homes to take refuge in schools or public places in safer areas of Port- au-Prince, or in other towns in the interior of Haiti.
