ECOWAS to deploy troops to Guinea-Bissau

The attempted coup in Guinea-Bissau left 11 people dead

West African regional bloc Ecowas will deploy troops to Guinea-Bissau to help stabilise the country after this week's attempted coup.

The bloc made the announcement after a summit held in Accra, Ghana.

The force will help prevent any attempted coups in future, the bloc said.

Ecowas deployed troops to Guinea-Bissau from 2012 to 2020 after a coup.

President Umaro Sissoco Embaló has said that stability has been restored in the country after the failed coup.
