Kenyan Police Deployed to Stabilize Haiti

Haiti's Prime Minister Garry Conille has called for gangs to surrender their weapons as violence continues to plague Port-au-Prince, where gangs control 80% of the territory. In response, a second contingent of 200 Kenyan police officers has arrived in Haiti as part of a UN-backed mission to combat the gang violence, with more international forces expected to join. The Kenyan deployment, despite facing domestic and international controversies including allegations of abuse, is part of a larger multinational effort involving countries such as the Bahamas, Bangladesh, and Jamaica. This mission aims to stabilize Haiti, which has seen significant turmoil, including attacks on police stations and infrastructure. The arrival of Kenyan forces has brought a temporary reduction in violence, although the mission's legality and effectiveness remain under scrutiny.
