The military government of Guinea says it has put the army on high alert at all border posts after uncovering plans for an attack on the country. The West African state said armed men were gathering on the borders with Guinea-Bissau and Senegal to the north and Liberia to the south.

An announcement on state-run national radio said drugs cartels were believed to be behind the plans.
