As the United States prepares to bolster Haiti’s fight against increasingly brutal armed gangs, a new report is urging officials and mission planners to heed the lessons of the recent Kenya-led security mission and warns that suppressing gangs cannot be reduced solely to killing their members.

Haiti’s new Gang Suppression Force appears poised to meet its ambitious target of 5,500 troops, after a number of nations, including Chad and Bangladesh, offered to deploy soldiers, engineers and police offices to help the country’s beleaguered security forces combat armed gangs.
A new contingent of 230 Kenyan police arrived in Haiti on Monday, Haiti's national police said, marking the first foreign deployment since the U.N. Security Council approved expanding an existing gang-fighting force in the Caribbean island.
This marks the first deployment since the last time the force was bolstered in February this year, force spokesperson Jack Ombaka told Reuters, adding it now numbered 980 personnel.
