Participation of France troops in Yemen's west coast battle - French newspaper reveals

The French newspaper "Le Figaro" revealed the presence of French troops participating in the battle of the West Coast of Yemen along with the UAE forces.

 (AhlulBayt News Agency) - The French newspaper "Le Figaro" revealed the presence of French troops participating in the battle of the West Coast of Yemen along with the UAE forces.

The French newspaper quoted two military sources as saying: "There are Special French Forces on Yemen supporting the UAE forces."

The newspaper gave no further details of the activities of the Special Forces, and no response has been received from the French Ministry of Defense so far, but its usual policy is not to comment on the special forces operations.

The French Defense Ministry said on Friday that France is considering the possibility of implementing the process of clearing mines in order to reach Hodeydah port once the coalition ends its military operations.

France, which has a military base in the UAE along with the United States and Britain, supports the alliance of aggression against Yemen since March 2015 in order to obtain money by providing Saudi Arabia and the UAE weapons, intelligence and logistical supplies and its presence in command and control rooms.

The leader of the revolution, Sayyed Abdulmalik al-Houthi, vowed on Thursday to turn the West Coast into a quagmire for the invaders, saying: "With the help of Allah and the will of our people, the West Coast will turn into a great swamp".
