Les heurts qui ont éclaté lundi en Haïti entre casques bleus et habitants en colère contre la gestion du choléra ont fait deux morts et plusieurs blessés. L’ONU a reconnu avoir tiré sur un des hommes décédés, mais explique que l’homme a tiré en direction d’un soldat qui a riposté « en légitime défense ». Les affrontements ont eu lieu au niveau d’une base de la Mission de l’ONU en Haïti (Minustah) dans la banlieue de Cap-Haïtien (nord). Des manifestants ont mis le feu à un commissariat. Le choléra a fait près d’un millier de morts depuis la mi-octobre, à deux semaines des élections présidentielles.
