Algerian planes arrive in Niger after coup

Nigerian reports have indicated that Algerian forces have dispatched a group of military aircraft to Diori Hamani Airport in Niamey, following the Nigerian military's recent regain of control over a strategic airbase as part of their efforts against a coup attempt. The aircraft include Su-30 fighter jets, an Ilyushin Il-76 transport plane, and an Ilyushin Il-78 aerial refueling aircraft, all supporting the Nigerien army, which also received four helicopters—Mi-171 and Mi-24—back in August. The Algerian Ministry of Defense confirmed that the purpose of this operation is to address the destabilization of Niger, while Nigerien officials described it as a strategic Algerian support. It is considered part of the efforts to strengthen military cooperation between the two countries amid ongoing events in Niger.
