YouTube Description
as posted by the channelHaiti is one of the world's poorest countries and has seen an upsurge in killings, rapes and kidnappings since the 2021 assasination of President Jovenel Moïse.
Violent gangs control large areas of the capital Port-au-Prince, terrorizing civilians. The UN says more than 3,600 people have been killed in gang violence this year alone.
In 2023, the UN mandated an international security support mission, led by the Kenyan police. 2,500 police officers were expected, but only 400 Kenyans arrived three months ago.
They’ve made some gains, but the task is risky. Haiti has a dark history, with French colonialists exploiting its resources and keeping the population enslaved, as well as the United States enforcing an occupation of the country between 1915-1934.
DW correspondent Mariel Mueller got exclusive access and went on patrol with the Kenyan police, in Port-au-Prince.
