President William Ruto announced Kenya’s plans to deploy an additional 600 police officers to Haiti next month to strengthen an international operation. This announcement came during a visit from the Haitian prime minister aimed at expediting the deployment of forces.
So far, at least 10 countries have pledged approximately 2,900 troops to the Kenyan-led Multinational Security Support (MSS) mission. However, only around 430 personnel have been deployed since the U.N.-authorized operation began in June, with nearly 400 of them being Kenyan.
