Opposition politicians in Kenya have once again sought legal intervention to halt the country’s planned deployment of police officers to Haiti.
Last year, President William Ruto offered to send 1,000 officers to address gang violence in the Caribbean nation.
While the deployment has already been delayed by a legal challenge, reports suggest that some officers may be sent to Haiti within the next few days.
Leaders of the Thirdway Alliance, a minor opposition party, accuse Mr. Ruto’s government of contempt of court for disregarding a previous court order.
They argue that Kenya should focus on addressing its own security challenges first.
