Kenya's Reconnaissance Mission in Haiti: Unveiling the Details

Kenya has deployed a delegation of senior police officers to Haiti on a reconnaissance mission to assist the Haitian national police in their fight against escalating gang violence. The move comes after the United Nations denounced the extreme brutality of gangs in Haiti, with thousands of people fleeing their neighborhoods due to the surge in violence. With a high number of casualties and kidnappings reported, Kenya has offered to lead an international effort to support Haiti's understaffed and under-resourced police department, which has been unable to control the rampant gang violence that has taken over much of the capital.
