Two dozen soldiers and police officers from Jamaica arrived in Haiti on Thursday to support an international security mission aimed at helping it fight powerful gangs.


Jamaica had pledged a total of 170 soldiers and 30 police officers, but Prime Minister Andrew Holness said during a Press Conference it wasn’t possible to deploy them all at once.


Jamaica is the second country to join the mission, which was approved by the U.N. Security Council in October 2023 and began when the first contingent of Kenyan police arrived in Haiti in late June.
