France's ambassador in Niger was flown out of the country early on Tuesday morning, two security sources said, around one month after the military government ordered his expulsion, APA reports citing Reuters.

The junta that seized power in a July coup ordered French ambassador Sylvain Itte to leave the country within 48 hours at the end of August in response to what they called actions by France "contrary to the interests of Niger".
