On December 7, 2025, Benin's military seized power, ousting President Patrice Talon in a coup.
On December 7, 2025, soldiers in Benin seized power in a televised coup, dissolving the government and removing President Patrice Talon, who had been in office since 2016 and planned to step down after a scheduled April 2026 election.
The self-styled Military Committee for Refoundation, led by Lt. Col. Pascal Tigri, declared it had taken control amid claims of governance failures.
The move follows a pattern of military takeovers across West Africa, including a recent coup in Guinea-Bissau.
No official confirmation has been issued by the government, and the situation remains unstable.
