In a televised speech, Haitian Prime Minister Garry Conille urged gangs to surrender their weapons as he acknowledged the escalating violence in Haiti's capital, Port-au-Prince. Conille emphasized the need to address the rampant violence that has plagued the city and beyond.
The call for disarmament comes as a second group of 200 Kenyan police officers arrived in Haiti to assist in quelling the widespread gang violence as part of a U.N.-backed mission led by Kenya.
