An officer from the Kenyan multinational security support (MSS) mission was reported missing in Haiti following an incident involving gangs. Gang members attacked the MSS forces while they were assisting a Haitian national police vehicle that had become stuck in a ditch, believed to have been dug by gangs.
The MSS and Haitian police have initiated a search and rescue operation to locate the missing officer, according to Kenya's police service. Local media in Haiti also reported that a Kenyan member of the MSS was killed, with videos shared on social media showing a soldier's body in a bloodied uniform on the ground.
