iciHaiti - Bahamas : RBDF troops in pre-deployment phase for Haiti
Foreign Affairs Minister Fred Mitchell said the Royal Bahamas Defence Force (RBDF) troops are currently in the pre-deployment phase for their mission to Haiti.

Mitchell said a forward operating base has been secured in Haiti and the Bahamian troops will be required to familiarise themselves with operational procedures. "There will be a requirement for Bahamians to go in the pre-deployment phase to get acclimated to the decision-making processes of the Kenyans, who are taking lead on this, and also to do some further risk assessment of the role they will be playing."

He confirmed that the overall mission remains the same, with the Government still committed to deploying 150 RBDF officers to Haiti.

The RBDF officers joining the Mission are critical elements of maritime security and will help train the Haitian National Police (HNP) Coast Guard component to secure national ports and intercept drug and arms traffickers along the coast.

Mitchell said details are still being decided and he could not provide further information due to security concerns and ongoing negotiations with Haiti and Kenya. "I can’t say when the pre-deployment phase will be wrapped up. I know they asked us if we can get our people in on the management side as quickly as possible." He said an advance team will be deployed during this phase as soon as all agreements are signed. He promised to share more information in the future
