Niger: Tribute to the Nigerien armed forces, guardians of the nation at the cost of sacrifice

The Niger Armed Forces (FAN) have once again demonstrated their bravery and unwavering commitment to defending the national territory. In response to two coordinated attacks against the National Guard detachment in Abalama, the Defense and Security Forces (FDS) mounted a firm and courageous counter-attack, neutralizing the assailants and recovering a significant arsenal of war materiel.

Although this operation was marked by the loss of one soldier and injuries to four others, it underscores the determination of the Nigerien forces to protect the population, even at the risk of their own lives.

The seized military arsenal highlights the effectiveness of the intervention and the exemplary coordination between the engaged units.

The support of the population and the responsiveness of the National Vigilance and Protection Unit also contributed to this FAN victory, illustrating national solidarity in the face of threats.

Through this action, the FAN reaffirm their central role in the fight against terrorism and their total commitment to the peace and stability of Niger.

Their sacrifice and professionalism deserve recognition and respect. The country can count on its soldiers, the true bulwarks of the Republic.
