Saudi fighter jets deployed to Turkey's Incirlik base

[Stannis Baratheon]

Saudi Arabia has sent aircraft to NATO-member Turkey's Incirlik air base for the fight against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group.

Brigadier General Ahmed al-Assiri, adviser in the office of Saudi Arabia's minister of defence, told Al Arabiya television on Saturday that the kingdom was committed to stepping up the fighting against ISIL and the move was part of those efforts.

He also said the current presence in the air base was limited to aircraft and no ground troops had been sent.

"What is present now is aircraft that are part of the Saudi Arabian forces," Assiri said.

Saudi Arabia has resumed its participation in air strikes against ISIL in recent weeks and US Defence Secretary Ashton Carter on Thursday welcomed its commitment to expand its role.

Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told the Yeni Safak newspaper on Saturday that Saudi Arabia had carried out inspections at the air base in preparation to sending aircraft.

Earlier this month, Riyadh said it is prepared to deploy ground troops to Syria to fight ISIL if US-led coalition leaders agree to the offer.

Russia warned last week that foreign troops sent into the nearly five-year Syrian conflict could ignite a world war.

What is more surprising is that Iranian UAVs are complementing the Russian bombers in bombing rebels and other terror groups.

Thats an old one picture showing Iranian Shahed-129 MALE UCAV on a bombing mission in Syria.

The drones that are accompanying Russian bombers are Iranian produced and Syrian owned M-4 UCAV drones which are used to designate targets as well as destroying them

I think it's probably more accurate to say that all these operations are being carried out under cover of a NATO operation.

In international law, states have the right to intervene on another state's territory in a limited number of circumstances, such a threat emanating to them from that state's territory which the governing regime is unable or unwilling to prevent.

Bro, I have no sympathy for iran(gog) saudi (magog), asad and russia or any dollar worshiper shaikh. But i care about Turkey bcoz its a brother country. what i mean was u should be independent from Nato in chosing allies and enemies, otherwise NATO and its arab stooge will use you and sell you to ur enemy within a brink of an eye, just like they did with us, but we were lucky that we got hand from our friend china in difficult time, most of terrorists get funding from GCC for their terrorism in Pakistan especialy UAE dogs in balochistan, yet the shameless terrorists kings want our army to save their arse. And we help save baharini dog just few year ago who is now inviting india in air show. they dont have an iota of shame, they backstab u 1920's, u know better then me.

Are Pakistani Airforce pilots going to do the sorties using Saudi fighters?

For your information according to the hadith the people who are the closest to the description of Gog and Magog are the Safavis who rule Iran, and the Rus. In fact both the Safavis and the Rus come from beyond the wall built by Zulqarnain. If you're going to throw around tafseer, at least get your facts right. This is so well acknowledged that even the Christians have come to the same conclusion.

There wasn't a terrorist problem in Pakistan until the Safavi Iranian funded Shiite terrorist group Tehreek-i-Jafria killed the leader of one the Saudi funded groups. That led to the Saudi aligned groups also forming into terrorist groups.

As for your attacks on the UAE and Bahrainis, they've saved Pakistan more times than you can count. If the UAE and Bahrain had truly been anything other than your well-wishers they would have long since aligned themselves with the Indians and allowed them basing rights in UAE and Bahrain. After all what did they gain from allying themselves with a bankrupt power with not a fraction of the economic might of India? Not to mention kicked out all the Pakistanis and replaced them with Indians.

But your hatred of the Gulf Arabs arises from religious and not strategic matters.

I wish to make it clear to the Turks and Gulf Arabs on this thread that Pashtuns do not agree with the sentiments expressed by people of mkn_91's religious persuasion. We Pashtuns have a long history of fighting alongside our Turkish and Arab brothers to defend the oppressed, and remain their well-wishers. Those who hate Turks and Gulf Arabs have nothing to do with us!

Balkanization of Syria is imminent, this should have happened long time back. Would have saved a lot of innocent lives.
