How can Haiti's gangs be controlled?

The US State Department says it expects a transitional council in Haiti to be appointed within the next 48 hours. Once established it will nominate a new prime minister to succeed Ariel Henry who announced his plans to resign on Monday. His departure had been a demand of the gangs which control much of Haiti, but even though he's now going, they're maintaining their blockade of the capital, Port-au-Prince. Much of the city remains closed, and people are running out of essential goods. We hear from residents of the capital, a former Haitian government minister, and an expert on the gangs.
