2001 Ivorian coup attempt

The 2001 Ivorian coup attempt was a failed coup d'état in the Ivory Coast by dissident factions of the Ivorian military trying to topple Laurent Gbagbo's government. The coup attempt began on the night of January 7 when rebel forces staged attacks on state broadcast facilities and the presidential residence in Abidjan, airing out the message "Dear compatriots, dear Ivorians. The country has undergone another change." after successfully seizing the broadcasting stations.
