Now they have too eat stuff like salmon with rice and vegetables, cassoulet, hare terrine or lamb tajine with only creme caramel or nougat for dessert (this is all stuff that are in the French military rations)

Seriously I hope they will be alright, this must be an extremely stressful situation.

The article's a bit confusing but the Nigeriens mean they are feeding them Nigerien military rations, not French rations. Probably sorghum.
