Niamey, the capital of Niger, witnessed a night of armed clashes that lasted around 12 hours. Rebel forces attempted to detain their colleagues at a military garrison and seize key locations, including the 101st Military Base, Niamey International Airport, and the Presidential Palace. The fighting involved shelling and heavy weapons, resulting in casualties and injuries. Security forces, supported by the Russian Wagner Group, intervened to regain control of these sites, arresting dozens of rebellious soldiers. Evidence indicates that the rebellion mainly revolves around demands for better ranks, salaries, and improved conditions for soldiers. Although the events did not escalate into a full coup attempt, analysts warn of the possibility of the rebellion re-emerging and turning into a genuine coup amid deteriorating security and economic conditions. Algeria and other countries condemned the rebels' attempt, while sources suggest that authorities might pursue dialogue with the rebellious officers to avoid further escalation.
