    Niger orders the Red Cross to leave the country

    The governing military junta in Niger has ordered the International Red Cross Committee (ICRC) to leave the country immediately, says a source.

    Niger must have “completed his agreements” with ICRC and some foreign staff have begun to leave the West African country. According to the source, the organization has also closed its office in the capital Niamey on Tuesday – which is also reported by Nigerian media.

    No reason for the decision has been stated.

    The Red Cross has been working in Niger since 1990 and has recently focused on help to people who have fallen victim to violence performed by jihadist groups with links to the terrorist movements al-Qaeda and IS.

    Since the takeover, Niger has expelled both French and American soldiers, as well as the French ambassador.
