The leaders of a coup in Niger are digging in their heels as they face a looming deadline from neighbors to give up power or face possible military action.
Regional bloc the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has given the Nigerien military a Sunday deadline to release and reinstate the country’s ousted president, Mohamed Bazoum.
One of the group’s officials said a plan for an intervention had been “worked out,” but that it remained a last resort.
