Reuters: West African leaders make plan for military intervention in Niger
ABUJA (Reuters) -West African defence chiefs have made a plan for potential military intervention to reverse last week's coup in Niger, including how and when to deploy forces, a leader of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) said on Friday.
