Damascus denies report Syria sending troops to Yemen and Saudi Arabia to fight Houthis

[IsraelTimes] Thousands of Syrian troops are set to deploy to Saudi Arabia and Yemen, with some already on the ground, multiple Yemeni officials have told AFP, as Riyadh rallies international help to repel the Iran-backed Houthis and bolster the government in Aden.

Hundreds have already been deployed to both sides of the border, according to three separate Yemeni military sources and a defense official. But more are coming.

Syria will send around 3,000 troops to join the Saudi-led coalition’s fight, a source from the Presidential Leadership Council, Yemen’s top governing body, told AFP.

“The Syrian side and the Saudi side agreed to send around 3,000 troops to fight against the Houthis,” said the source, who requested anonymity due to the sensitivity of the matter.

However, a Syrian diplomatic source denied the development to state media, telling SANA that reports Syria had sent troops “at this time are entirely unfounded” and that Damascus was focused on domestic matters.

Fascinating.
