Kenyan Court Halts Deployment of Police to Haiti

A Kenyan court has ruled against the government's plan to deploy police to Haiti as part of a UN-backed mission to restore peace and security in the violence-stricken nation, deeming the decision unconstitutional and invalid. This comes as Haiti faces escalating gang violence and a plea from its foreign minister for urgent multinational support. The UN Security Council had previously approved the Kenya-led mission, but the court ruling has halted the deployment, sparking reactions from both the Haitian and Kenyan governments.
