Nigerian Air Force Strikes Coup Plotters in Benin Republic

The Nigerian Air Force carried out strategic airstrikes on coup plotters in Benin Republic after a failed coup led by Lt. Pascal Tigri.

The operation involved multiple coordinated strikes within Benin's airspace, targeting coup plotters and disrupting their escape routes. The swift intervention by loyalist forces and Nigerian fighter jets successfully immobilized armored vehicles and prevented the escape of the coup plotters.

This cross-border military operation highlights Nigeria's readiness to decisively act against destabilizing threats in the region.
