President Ruto’s administration is planning to send 600 additional police officers to Haiti.
In his recent visit to Haiti, President Ruto said he was optimistic the mission would be successful.
Kenyan police officers who are in Haiti to help the government there fight armed gangs as part of a multinational force will now remain in the country for another year.
According to the Kenya National Police Service, this new development follows the UN Security Council's move to extend the mandate of the Multinational Security Support (MSS) Mission deployed in the Caribbean country hit by anarchy.
