Syria mulls deployment to Yemen
According to Axios, an American news agency, Syria is considering sending military forces to participate in combat operations against the Houthi group in Yemen. This comes after discussions held during Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharif's visit to Riyadh and his meeting with the Saudi Crown Prince. The move is part of supporting the Yemeni government backed by Saudi Arabia, with potential troop numbers ranging between 10,000 and 20,000 soldiers. These forces could include units such as the 90th Division in Damascus and the 84th Division in the south, which comprise former Sunni Islamist fighters who previously fought against the Assad regime. Although President al-Sharif has not made a final decision, the proposal is under serious consideration and could raise concerns about escalating the sectarian nature of the conflict and prolonging its duration.
