Soldiers overthrew Embaló's government last Wednesday, before the results of the presidential and legislative elections held earlier in the week were announced, continuing the political instability in this small, Portuguese-speaking nation.

Meanwhile, the largest opposition party reported that its headquarters in the capital, Bissau, had been stormed by an armed militia following the post-election coup that brought the military to power.

The army seized power on Wednesday, the day before the preliminary results of the national elections were announced. President Embaló initially fled to neighboring Senegal, but the military installed Major General Horta Inta as interim president on Thursday.
