Attempted military coup ongoing in Niger.
Parts of the military, supported by special forces, have attacked the airport and presidential palace in Niamey.
Both loyalist and rebel elements of the military have left their positions in the south where they were fighting against ISIS and Al-Qaeda.
They are now involved in heavy fighting with each other instead.
Niger has previously seen successful military coups in 1974, 1996, 1999, 2010 and 2023 while failed or thwarted military coups were registered in 1975, 1976, 1983, 2021 and 2022.https://x.com/i/status/2093718704429105304
