After almost two years of helping Haiti's security forces reign in armed gangs, the international security mission led by Kenya has begun withdrawing. A group of 215 Kenyan police officers who formed the second contingent of the Multinational Security Support Mission arrived in Nairobi recently , as the mission began transitioning to a new United Nations-backed force, the Gang Suppression Force (GSF). The shift comes amid criticism of Haiti's exclusion from planning and ongoing security challenges. The Kenyan-led mission was deployed in June 2024 to support the Haitian National Police (PNH) in combating armed gangs. It will be replaced by troops from Chad. To discuss this further, Tsepiso Makwetla spoke to we have Diego Da Rin, a Haiti Analyst at the Crisis Group in Mexico
