Kenyan troops start Haiti withdraw as Gang Suppression Force deployment nears

After 21 months of struggling to help Haiti’s security forces reign in armed gangs, the international security mission led by Kenya is beginning to draw down, signaling the troubled Caribbean nation’s transition to a new phase of international intervention.

Last Friday, a smaller contingent of troops from The Bahamas and Jamaica that made up the Caribbean component also departed Port-au-Prince. “The mission has now entered a transition and drawdown phase that will see more officers gradually return home from their tour of duty,” the Kenyan interior ministry said in a statement.
