Kenyan President William Ruto has reiterated his country's commitment to supporting Haiti with a multinational force to combat gang-related violence. Ruto called on the United Nations to approve a resolution authorizing Kenya's mission, stating that the international community had failed Haiti so far. Haiti has been plagued by gang violence, with over 200 powerful gangs controlling parts of the country and causing tens of thousands of people to flee their homes. While Kenya's offer has been welcomed by some, civil society groups have expressed concerns about the Kenyan police force's human rights record. The deployment still requires approval from the UN Security Council and local authorities.
