Niger’s army declares no fly zone citing foreign military intervention

Niger’s military has closed its airspace citing military intervention threat from its neighbours, according to the British Broadcasting Corporation, they did so without providing evidence.

ECOWAS deadline to return power to a civilian government or face potential military action expired yesterday.

Apparently, ECOWAS is yet to comment on the latest development.

Meanwhile, a BA55G London to Johannesburg had to make a u-turn in the mid of Algeria Sahara desert and looks like returning to Europe.

Watchers say no single aircraft could be seen within Nigerien airspace not even a helicopter.
