This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to BBC News.
A state of emergency was declared in the country after armed gangs stormed the capital's large prison in Port-au-Prince, killing at least 12 people and freeing about 4,000 prisoners.
The leaders of the groups are demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Ariel Henry, who is outside the country.
As the newspaper notes, he went to Nairobi to discuss sending a multinational security force to Haiti under the leadership of Kenya.
A government statement said the gangs attacked two prisons, one in the capital and the other in nearby Croix-de-Bouquet.
