The government of Haiti declared a 72-hour state of emergency on Sunday after armed gangs stormed a major Port-au-Prince prison, leading to the killing of at least 12 people and the escape of about 4,000 inmates.
Gang leaders said they want to force the resignation of Prime Minister Ariel Henry, who is currently abroad.
The groups aiming to oust him control about 80% of Port-au-Prince.
Violent gang wars have killed thousands in the country since 2020.
