Two hundred Kenyan police officers arrived in Haiti on Thursday to join the United Nations-backed mission to fight gangs in the crisis-plagued Caribbean country.
More than 600 Kenyan officers had already been stationed in Haiti as part of a multinational force of police officers and soldiers from other countries - including Jamaica, Guatemala and El Salvador - who assist Haiti's police in fighting the violent gangs in control of much of the capital, Port-au-Prince. "The Haitian National Police are outnumbered and outgunned by the gangs," William O'Neill, a U.N.
expert on Haiti, told The Associated Press on Thursday.
