Group of 25 Canadian 🇨🇦Students🎓 Flees Haiti 🇭🇹Unrest


A group of 25 school students from Quebec and three chaperones were able to leave Haiti on Sunday, where they had been stuck due to violent anti-government protests. "We are on the plane" back to Montreal, one of the chaperones confirmed in a message. Canadian tour operator Transat also confirmed that the group of students was aboard flight TS663, which departed at 3:59 pm (2059 GMT) from Port-au-Prince.

In addition to the students, employees of Canada's temporarily-shuttered embassy were also heading home aboard the aircraft. The day before, a group of 131 Canadian tourists were evacuated via helicopter from their beachside resort in Haiti after being trapped for one week at the site due to the ongoing unrest. The tourists were ferried in shifts to the Port-au-Prince international airport, where they boarded a flight to Canada, Transat said.
