Kenya dispatches another 200 police officers to Haiti to counter Haiti gangs - What does it take for a nation to restore peace in another, especially when the latter is plagued by gang violence and instability? As 200 more Kenyan police officers deploy to Haiti, this question becomes crucial in understanding the complex dynamics of international peacekeeping efforts.
In an unprecedented move, Kenya has committed to sending 1,000 police officers to Haiti under a UN-backed mission to quell rampant gang violence. This decision, spearheaded by President William Ruto, comes amidst internal political turmoil in Kenya and persistent legal challenges. Despite these hurdles, the first batch of 400 officers was deployed in June, followed by the recent deployment of an additional 200 officers.
These officers are not just any regular policemen. They are well-trained units, prepared for the worst scenarios, akin to the conditions in Nairobi's Korogocho slums. The Kenyan team in Haiti has been undertaking strategic mapping of potential areas of concern and conducting joint patrols with the Haitian National Police (HNP) to restore order.
Haiti, the poorest nation in the Americas, has long been afflicted by gang violence. The situation deteriorated further in February when armed groups launched coordinated attacks in Port-au-Prince, aiming to overthrow then-prime minister Ariel Henry. The violence has had devastating effects on the country's infrastructure, particularly its healthcare system. Hospitals have been occupied by gangs, police stations seized, and major institutions attacked.
