How outlets framed it
All sources: Niger's ruling junta has asserted control following a mutiny by soldiers who attempted to storm a military base and the presidential palace. Reports indicate that dozens of soldiers were killed or arrested in the aftermath.
Key divergence: While most sources report on the junta's claim of regaining control, the BBC and France 24 specifically highlight Russia's role in assisting the junta to repel the attempted coup.
