Algeria to send troops to Niger in first foreign deployment in over 50 years

De la fuente

Algeria’s parliament on Sunday approved a resolution to send troops to Niger, making the first time Algerian soldiers will be deployed abroad since the 1973 Arab-Israeli war. Niger faces persistent attacks by armed groups, including near its border with Algeria, and the deployment comes as Algiers and Niamey are building the Trans-Saharan Gas Pipeline after decades of delays.
