Algeria has sent its first troops to Niger in decades, with a 53-truck convoy arriving at Agadez under military escort, per Africa Business Insider.

The deployment marks a significant shift in regional dynamics as Algeria seeks to bolster its influence amid growing instability in the Sahel, Africanews reports.

Algeria has also adopted a trade boycott against countries it deems hostile, as reported by Africa Intelligence, amid tensions with regional powers.

The move comes as Algeria continues cleanup efforts at its former French nuclear test site, AA.com.tr notes.
