[Reports say that Syria is considering sending troops to fight against the Houthis. Syria responds] On October 8, the American Axios news website reported on the 7th that Saudi Arabia is discussing with Syria the issue of sending Syrian troops to Yemen to participate in the fight against the Houthi armed forces in Yemen. President Salad of the Syrian transitional government is seriously considering the matter and has not yet made a decision. People familiar with the matter said that Syria may send 10,000 to 20,000 soldiers to Yemen. The troops being considered are the 90th Division stationed near the Syrian capital Damascus and the 84th Division stationed near Suwayda Province in southern Syria. The Information Department of the Syrian Transitional Government responded through its own media that day that it firmly supported Saudi Arabia, but Syria’s “priority” was to rebuild the country.
