Kenyan police in Haiti, led by MSS Commander Godfrey Otunge, are implementing a new strategy to combat gang violence. This approach focuses on anticipating gang movements and preventing the "displacement of crime" as gangs are pushed from their strongholds in Port-au-Prince.

• The strategy involves countering gangs in dominated zones while simultaneously reinforcing peaceful areas with specialized police units to prevent gang expansion.
• Godfrey Otunge, Senior Assistant Inspector General of Police, commands the Kenyan contingent.
• More than 900 troops from various countries have been deployed to Haiti by June 2025, with the Kenyan contingent forming the majority. The United Nations Security Council recently extended its political mission in Haiti until January 31, 2026.
