What would overturn it

A wire report (AP, AFP, Reuters) of a further armed mutiny, attack on a government or military site, or coup attempt against the junta before November 28; 90 days with no such report flips this false.

As logged at issue

Likely that Niger's junta suffers at least one further armed mutiny or coup attempt against Gen. Tiani within 90 days (by November 28) — this weekend's assault was the third attack on Niamey's airport this year, an established pattern rather than a single flashpoint, and the underlying factional grievances inside the security forces remain unresolved even though this attempt was contained; 90 days without another mutiny attempt reported by wire services would flip this false.
