Description
U.S. troops complete a withdrawal from their base in Niger's capital Niamey and will fully depart from Agadez in the north of the West African country before a September 15 deadline set by the country's military rulers, the Nigerien Army chief of staff says. Niger's military leaders scrapped a military cooperation deal with Washington in March, after seizing power in a July 2023 coup. The United States had around 650 soldiers in Niger as part of anti-jihadist missions in several Sahel nations of West Africa, including a major drone base near Agadez. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
