Was just a New Report on Ch4HDnews showing Looting and Shops on Fire. BBC: [Soldiers in the West African country of Niger have announced a coup on national TV. They said they had dissolved the constitution, suspended all institutions and closed the nation's borders. Niger President Mohamed Bazoum has been held by troops from the presidential guard since early on Wednesday. He was promised Washington's "unwavering support" in a call from US Secretary of State Antony Blinken. UN Secretary General António Guterres also said he had spoken to the president and offered the UN's full support to the uranium-rich country. Mr Bazoum is a key Western ally in the fight against Islamist militancy in West Africa.] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-66320895 Last edited by arista; 27-07-2023 at 06:21 PM. |
