The Patriotic Liberation Front (FPL), a rebel group in Niger, formed in August 2023, a month after the military coup that ousted President Mohamed Bazoum. While details remain scarce, the group's activities likely involve armed conflict against the current Nigerien government.
Two armed groups are ready to lay down their arms and surrender to the
Nigerien authorities, according to the local media. Several dozen militants are reportedly expected to stop the armed struggle in the coming days.
According to the Nigerien media, these individuals decided to respond to the "Call of the Fatherland." This is the first wave of
militants from a neighboring country, as reported by the media's sources.
Since the beginning of November, more than a dozen former fighters of the rebel FPL have already officially surrendered to the Nigerien authorities.
