Preparations for the deployment of an international force to Haiti are experiencing significant delays, allowing the country's gangs more time to prepare for what is anticipated to be a fierce response, according to a new analysis by InSight Crime.
The initial deployment, comprised of some 200 Kenyan police officers, was expected to arrive on May 23 but was postponed after a visit by six Kenyan officials to Port-au-Prince, revealed shortages of crucial equipment, including armored vehicles, weapons, and radios.
