Egypt settles its position on sending its forces to fight in Yemen in support of Saudi Arabia

Egypt ·

Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty said parliament's authorisation of President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi to take the measures needed to support Saudi Arabia does not mean sending Egyptian forces to Yemen.

Yemen's internationally recognised government, backed by a Saudi-led coalition since 2015, has fought the Houthi movement (Ansar Allah), which controls Sanaa and much of the north.
