Asky

Asky is a Togolese airline. The organization is newsworthy due to a source within the company providing information to The Guardian regarding a recent attack at the main airport in Niamey, the capital of Niger. According to the source, gunfire and loud blasts were heard at the airport, which is located next to Base Aérienne 101, a military base that has been used by both American and Russian troops. The attack, which occurred shortly after midnight, has been claimed by the Islamic State in the Sahel. Asky's relevance stems from its potential connection to the event as an airline operating in the region and its ability to provide firsthand accounts of the situation.
