Niger's military junta claims that critical reports from organizations like Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International seek to discredit the country, alleging one-sidedness.
Despite the junta's assertions of protecting human rights through their actions against terrorist groups, numerous NGOs document ongoing human rights violations in Niger.
Although there have been reports of bans on HRW and Amnesty's work in Niger, both organizations confirmed that no official ban has yet been imposed.
Following the military takeover in July 2023, Niger's government has suspended approximately 200 local and international organizations, raising concerns about censorship and repression.
