Kenyan Cabinet greenlights Haiti peacekeeping force; parliamentary approval still needed
Fox News
Kenya's Cabinet approved the deployment of 1,000 anti-gang personnel to Haiti, but still must receive parliamentary approval before following through.
From Jan. 1 until Aug. 15, more than 2,400 people in Haiti were reported killed, more than 950 kidnapped and another 902 injured, according to the most recent U.N. statistics.
Kenya's high court on Monday barred the deployment, approved by the U.N. Security Council earlier this month, for two weeks until a challenge to the deployment filed by a local politician is heard on Oct. 24.
