Niger: Major Attack on Agadem Oil Site by MPLJ

Agadem, December 6, 2025 - A unit of the People's Movement for Justice and Liberty (MPLJ) launched a major attack on the Agadem-Debila oil site, reportedly destroying it completely, according to statements from the group.

The MPLJ declared that its operations would continue and intensify until its demands, described as “legitimate” by the group, are met.

This incident underscores the ongoing security challenges in Niger’s oil-producing regions and highlights the vulnerability of strategic energy infrastructure to militant actions.
