The emotion is still great in Niger, after the terrorist attack last Tuesday which killed 71 soldiers from the base of Inates, on the border with Mali. The national mourning ended Sunday evening, but for the families of the victims, the tributes will continue for days. Relatives of Commander Hassan Anoutab, who died alongside his men on the base, agreed to receive us yesterday.
He's a little brother. His bravery goes back to childhood. We are proud, family members, because his disappearance is shared by all Nigeriens.
Commander Hassan Anoutab died with dignity, a source of pride for his brother Abderamane
