Attaque contre l’Aéroport de Niamey : La réaction de l’ambassade des Etats-Unis au Niger

The attack on Niamey airport and the underlying airbase on the night of January 28-29, 2026, continues to elicit reactions. After Chad and Saudi Arabia, it is now the United States' turn, through its embassy in Niamey, to condemn this "terrorist" attack that targeted critical infrastructure in the Sahelian country.

“Acts of violence of this nature also undermine peace…”

For the American diplomatic mission, what happened on the night of January 28-29, 2026, "threatens the safety of civilians (and that of) all those working to support the stability and security of Niger."

“Acts of violence of this nature also undermine peace, development and the joint efforts of Nigeriens and their partners to build a safer and more prosperous future,” stressed the US Embassy in Niamey, which did not fail to express its solidarity with the people and government of Niger.

He ultimately expressed his support for efforts to bring those responsible for this attack to justice, while also expressing his commitment to "working with Niger and regional partners to promote security, resilience and respect for human life."

Let us remember that the United States opposes terrorism and violent extremism in all its forms.
