On October 17, hundreds of thousands hit the streets of Haiti demanding the resignation of de-facto President Ariel Henry as well as to reject his request for international military assistance. The mobilizations coincided with the 216th anniversary of the assassination of Jean-Jacques Dessalines, the leader of the Haitian Revolution of 1804.
