STORYLINE:
Wearing body armour and holding automatic weapons, Kenyan police officers were seen patrolling the streets of the Haitian capital on Wednesday.
The group, the first U.N.-backed contingent of foreign police in the country, arrived in Haiti in June, nearly two years after the troubled Caribbean country urgently requested help to quell a surge of gang violence.
Criminal gangs currently control about 80% of the capital, Port-au-Prince. The upsurge of violence in Haiti has left more than 580,000 displaced in recent months, according to a recent report by the U.N.'s International Organization for Migration.
On Wednesday the small group of officers did not stray far from the international airport of Port-au-Prince where they are based.
The patrol attracted the curiosity of passers-by but went without confrontation with gangs or incidents.

Most people don't know this, but the Kenyan military was in Camp Victory and Camp Liberty Iraq between 2007-2009.
Kenya is not doing any mission in Haiti. Kenya is there to security ambassade American. That is Kenya mission not Haiti security. Kenya is doing a job for his boss.
