The Kenyan police command under the Multinational Security Support (MSS) mission has dismissed reports claiming that many Kenyan officers have suffered serious injuries while on duty in Haiti.
Speaking on NTV on Saturday evening, MSS Spokesperson Jack Ombaka dismissed recent reports in media suggesting that the gangs were taking a toll on the Kenyan officers following the reports of the death of another Kenyan officer while in Haiti.
According to Ombaka, several individuals are spreading propaganda about the officers' operations in Haiti and wishing them ill while on duty-actions he warned could have negative consequences on the mission. ''The so-called serious injuries, those are wishful thinking, and, regrettably, there are people outside there who are just praying for Kenyans to get serious injuries.
The truth is that we do not have serious injuries,'' Ombaka maintained. A contingent of Kenya Police Officers at the Port-au-Prince airport in Haiti on January 19, 2025, when they arrived for deployment.
