Algeria Sends Helicopters and Ammo to Niger
Algeria aimed to strengthen its relations with Niger through the donation of military aid, including four helicopters, equipment, and ammunition, following a period of tension between the two countries. The donated helicopters, of the "MI-24V" and "MI-171" models, were transported from the Ain Qzaz base in Algeria to Niamey Airport, with the goal of supporting security and stability in the region. This step is part of efforts to improve military cooperation between the two nations. The move follows tensions in April 2025, which included a significant escalation after Algeria shot down a drone. However, relations have since returned to a normal course, with visits and joint projects aimed at boosting military and economic cooperation, particularly through strategic initiatives such as the Sahara Road and gas pipelines.
