The reopening of ports including Port-de-Paix, Cap-Haïtien, and Jacmel, comes after the F.A.A. lifted the flight ban that had left travelers stranded and hampered humanitarian assistance. The situation in Haiti has deteriorated significantly since the assassination of former President Jovenel Moïse, with gangs reportedly controlling up to 85 percent of the capital, exacerbating the crisis as they engage in widespread violence and lawlessness that has plunged the nation into chaos.

The international community continues to watch closely as airports reopen, yet the uncertainty surrounding conditions in the capital reinforces the need for urgent attention to restore order and support the distressed population.
