A senior Niger official has said that in January US Ambassador Bisa Williams requested permission to establish a drone base in the country. Niger readily agreed and last month the US and Niger signed a status of forces agreement so the two nations can :

A US spokesperson for the state department said. 100 US troops have been sent to Niger to help set up the drone base.
