Washington, USA: The United States is organizing a charter flight to evacuate its citizens from Haiti, the US embassy said on Saturday, after weeks of gang violence that has paralyzed the Caribbean country.
The emergency flight will depart from Cap-Haitien, Haiti's second-largest city, as the main airport in capital Port-au-Prince remains shut amid the unrest.
"We are arranging a charter flight for U.S. citizens from Cap-Haitien to the United States, assuming the security situation in Cap-Haitien remains stable," the US embassy in Haiti said in a security alert posted on its website.
The embassy said the airport in Cap-Haitien is open "periodically" for departing flights.
No date for the evacuation has been announced and it is unclear how many Americans will be able to take the flight.
