Political crisis in Haiti deepens, government urges US, UN to send security forces

The political crisis in Haiti has deepened after the assassination of President Jovenel Moise. The country's government has urged Washington and the United Nations to send soldiers to help secure its ports, airport, and other critical facilities. Washington is in talks with Port-au-Prince. "We assumed the mercenaries would destroy some infrastructure to destabilise the government," Mathias Pierre, the minister of elections said.
