On Haiti fired a passenger aircraft: Airport was urgently closed (video)

Passengers were not injured, but the flight attendant received mild injuries, according to Spirit Airlines. The fired aircraft is decommissioned. Haita urgently canceled all flights of Tussen-Luvretur International Airport in the Port-Oressi capital after Monday, November 11, local criminal groups fired at Spirit Airlines Airlines. The holes from the balls were also found on the Jetblue aircraft.

These cases are the consequences of the escalation of violence in the country after the release of the Provisional Prime Minister, writes The New York Times. It is reported that the flight 951 of Spirit Airlines, which flew from Fort-Lauderdele in Florida, USA, to Tussen-Luvrtur International Airport in Port-O-Prince, was forced to change the course to Santiago in the Dominicanic Republic.

After successful landing of the aircraft at 11:30 in the morning, the check found a hole similar to the ball openings. The other two flights heading to Port-Orens were also redirected, the Federal Aviation Directorate reported. "The review revealed evidence of damage to the aircraft, which indicates a shot," said Spirit Airlines spokesman Tommy Fletcher. The spokesman also noted that one of the flight attendants had mild injuries and needed a doctors' examination.

Passengers, according to him, were not injured. The firing aircraft was decommissioned. The Jetblue airline reported that their plane was also fired on Monday during the departure from Port-Orens, but did not notice it during the flight. The holes from the balls were found only after planting in New York. The airline reported that it has stopped all flights to and from Haiti to December 2 and begins an investigation. American Airlines also canceled flights to Thursday.

It is assumed that Spirit Airlines was fired from the ground, although the shooters were not identified at this time. The attack on the Spirit aircraft occurred a day after the Provisional Prime Minister Haiti Harry Konil was released by the Transitional Presidential Council, which manages the country before the presidential election.

Harry Kornil was appointed Prime Minister at the end of May to combat a coalition of criminal gangs, which in the early 2024 was staged in the capital of chaos: attacked by neighborhoods, police and hospitals. Last month, the shelling of the United Nations with three crew members and 15 passengers on board was also reported. He came under balls when he flew over the area of ​​the capital of Haiti, which is controlled by criminal gangs.

With the help of Kenya law enforcement officers, the wave of violence managed to suppress, and after the release of the prime minister escalation happens again, reported journalists. The President of the Dominican Republic Luis Abinader, after firing a passenger aircraft on Monday, urged US and Haiti government to formally recognize Haitian gangs with terrorist organizations.

We will remind, on November 11 the media wrote that the plane with passengers broke out after take -off and was forced to make an emergency landing at Fuumicino Airport in Italy. The flames swept the engine and the pilot was forced to drop the fuel into the sea. Also, November 5, The Wall Street Journal reported that the Russian Federation was preparing terrorist attacks on passenger aircraft in the US and Canada.
