Tuesday, September 3, 2024 – Dreaded Haiti gang leader Barbecue and his followers are yet to see what the Kenyan police are capable of.
This is after the National
Police Service (NPS) announced that it was embarking on sea, land, and air
operations in Haiti.
The Kenya police, which leads
the Multinational Mission to Haiti (MSS), noted that the pacification
operations are aimed at clearing roads and streets in the troubled Caribbean
country as they push the gangs further away.
The mission, therefore, hopes to
open up the country and allow a normal flow of people and vehicular movement.
MSS explained that the operation
was made possible after the U.S. provided additional vehicles and equipment to the
mission.
"The Kenyan-led
multinational Mission to Haiti (MSS), in collaboration with Haiti National
Police (HNP) are conducting clearance operations in Delmas, Bel-Air, Solino,
and their environs to weed out gangs and return normalcy," NPS stated.
MSS, as a result, cautioned
gangs in Haiti to down their weapons and surrender to the government, noting
that the operation would be thorough.
The mission further called upon
the Haitian people, authorities, and stakeholders to continue supporting MSS to
re-establish security and improve conditions to hold free and fair elections.
Barely a week ago, another joint operation led to the killing of gang members in an ambush attack.
At
the time, the operation took place in the districts of Bel-Air and Solino
located in the suburbs of Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital.
