The Chadian government says an attack on the country's presidency compound foiled by security forces on Wednesday, was carried out by a disorganized band of intoxicated men wielding knives and machetes who were easily neutralized.  

Bursts of gunfire rang out near the president's office in the capital N'Djamena on Wednesday night as the military blocked surrounding streets.

The government said later that security forces had foiled an attempt to destabilize the Central African country, and that the situation was completely under control.
