"The Secretary General urges ... urgent consideration of the Haitian government's request for the immediate deployment of an international military force to address the humanitarian crisis," the official statement said.

It is noted that these measures are necessary, among other things, to ensure the free movement of water, fuel, food and medicine from the main ports and airports to the population and medical institutions.

On the night of July 7, unidentified people attacked the residence of the President of Haiti, Jovenel Moise.

The head of state died from his wounds.

Haiti National Police chief Léon Charles said at least 26 Colombian citizens were part of the armed group that killed Moise.
