Niger Takes Decisive Action Against 20 Captured Attackers

Gunfire and explosions hit Diori Hamani International Airport in Niamey again — the second strike on Niger's main airport in five months. In this follow-up episode, we go past the headlines and report what is known: the timeline, the tactics, the toll, the claim of responsibility, and Niger's response, from the security architecture around the airport to the wider crackdown on foreign NGOs operating inside the country. We look at why this one airport keeps drawing fire — the air force base, the drones, the headquarters of the Sahel joint force, and the more than 1,000 tons of uranium still sitting on the ground there. We report Niger's own accusations against France, the claim of responsibility, the fate of the captured attackers, and what this moment says about a country trying to stand on its own feet.
