International Airport and Base 101 military installation in Niamey, the capital city. Sustained gunfire and explosions were reported across multiple areas of the city, with attackers attempting to breach the security perimeters around the presidency. Security forces regained control, and neutralized the attackers though official casualty figures have not yet been released. The attack underscores the persistent jihadist threat facing Niger despite its military government's promises to restore security.
