ALERT***<br>
</font><font face="Verdana" size=3>NEW ATTACKS ON CITE SOLEIL RESIDENTS
BY UN TROOPS <br><br>
<br>
</b>The <b>Haiti Action Committee</b> has received eyewitness reports
over the past four days from Cite Soleil that UN troops have launched a
new round of attacks on the residents there, killing at least three
civilians and gravely wounding others. <br><br>
According to the preliminary reports:<br>
<ul>
<li>On Wednesday, November 23rd, UN troops killed one man who was a maker
of kitchen utensils when they fired into his shop near his home; 5
reported wounded.
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Over the weekend, UN troopsled by Jordanian soldierskilled two more
Cite Soleil residents, husband and wife, and wounded 8 people. More
people could have been killed and woundedfurther investigation is
required.
</ul><br>
<b>Residents in Cite Soleil are once again trapped and under siege.</b>
<br><br>
This could be a massacre that is in the making as we send out this alert.
<br><br>
Unfortunately, the UN troops have already demonstrated on July 6th, 2005,
and again on other occasions that they will shoot and kill men, women and
children in their homes, in their beds, and as they go about their daily
chores. Now is the time to act -- to let them know the world is watching
and demands an end to the killings!<br>
<br>
Contact the following officials and demand that they intervene to stop
the siege on the residents of Cite Soleil:<br>
