When Kenyan police arrived in Haiti as part of a U.N.-backed mission earlier this year to quell gang violence, hopes were high.

Turk reported in a press release that, since November 11, over 150 people have lost their lives, 92 have been injured, and approximately 20,000 residents have been forced to flee their homes.

As gangs escalate violence in Haiti, the UN Security Council debates upgrading the current security mission to a peacekeeping force despite opposition from Russia and China.
