Attaque contre l’aéroport de Niamey : Le Niger accuse cette puissance étrangère
Following yesterday's terrorist attack on Niamey airport, the Nigerien Ministry of National Defense issued a statement accusing France of being behind the aggression. "On the morning of June 18, 2026, at around 6:00 AM, armed mercenaries in the pay of Emmanuel Macron's France, some wearing explosive belts, attempted to infiltrate the Hamani Diori airport terminal in Niamey, using public transportation, including taxis," the statement reads.
"We remind the sponsors of these mercenaries, including Emmanuel Macron, Patrice Talon..."
These accusations by Nigerien authorities against Paris are not new. In January 2026, when an airbase near Niamey airport was attacked, Nigerien President Abdourahmane Tiani had already pointed the finger at Emmanuel Macron's France. "We remind the sponsors of these mercenaries, including Emmanuel Macron, Patrice Talon, and Alassane Ouattara, that we have listened to their barking long enough. Let them prepare to hear us roar in turn," he declared.
