Madagascar presidency claims coup attempt as soldiers join protests | DW News

In the Indian Ocean country of Madagascar, the president's office says a "violent attempt to seize power" is underway. And now, an elite unit of Madagascar's army has claimed control of all military forces. The special unit is known as CAPSAT, and joined anti-government protests just yesterday. It called on other security forces to follow them. The protests began in September over shortages of electricity and water - and have grown into a challenge for President Andry Rajoelina. In recent hours, CAPSAT unit leaders joined together for a video statement telling other military brass that they are in charge. 00:00 Madagascar presidency claims violent coup attempt 00:56 DW speaks with journalist Gaëlle Borgia in Madagascar capital, Antananarivo For more news go to: http://www.dw.com/en/ Follow DW on social media: ►Instagram:   / dwnews   ►TikTok:   / dwnews   ►Facebook:   / deutschewellenews   ►Twitter:   / dwnews   Für Videos in deutscher Sprache besuchen Sie:    / dwdeutsch   Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/user/deutsche... #Madagascar #GenZProtest #Coup
