The United States (US) has decided to partially evacuate its embassy in Niger, ordering all non-emergency officials to temporarily leave the country amid tension following the military coup in the West African country. The US State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller said that the measure was taken "out of an abundance of caution." The embassy would remain open only for "limited, emergency services," he added.
