發生了什麼
伊斯蘭國薩赫勒省——報導稱與其西非省一同——對尼阿美的Diori Hamani國際機場發動大規模攻擊。二十名攻擊者被擊斃，其中包括一名法國公民，至少十一人被俘；四名尼日士兵受傷。俄羅斯外交部表示，這次攻擊「是在俄羅斯國防部非洲軍團與尼日武裝部隊的共同努力下被擊退的」。齊亞尼將軍隨後親自造訪俄羅斯基地以向該部隊致謝。各方來源對日期的說法相差一天。
This is the best-evidenced Africa Corps engagement anywhere in this module: an official Russian statement, a public acknowledgement from the head of the host state, and a specific casualty account. It establishes that Russia will say publicly that its forces fought alongside a Sahelian army against a jihadist attack — which is the baseline against which the far less well-sourced reports of Russian involvement in the August mutiny should be read. The reported participation of Islamic State West Africa Province is recorded as a fact about this attack; this module does not cover the Lake Chad system.
