"Kenyan Court Blocks Police Deployment to Haiti, Exacerbating Gang Violence Crisis"

A Kenyan court's ruling blocking the deployment of a U.N.-backed police force to help combat gang violence in Haiti has left the country in a state of uncertainty and fear as violence escalates and gangs tighten their grip on the capital. With Haiti's National Police losing officers at an alarming rate and equipment from the international community proving insufficient, the situation has become dire. While Haiti awaits the possibility of a plan B, concerns grow about the worsening security crisis and the potential for radical decisions in the absence of international intervention.
