Tony Abbott the Prime Minister of
Australia said that they would deploy around 600 troops to United Arab Emirates
to join the call of US—led to the international coalition gearing up for its war
against Islamic State jihadists.
The Prime Minister announced two
days after the terror alert in Canberra was lifted to “high” on the growing
concern about Australian jihadists returning from combating in Iraq and Syria.
Abbott said that the deployment
of about “400 air personnel and about 200 military personnel” was a call to
accept the formal request from White House for Australia in order to contribute
to the international coalition against rampaging Islamist faction.
Australia was not arranging a
combat troops but contributing to the international pains to prevent humanitarian
crisis from expanding.”
“There are obvious decisions to be
taken before the Australian forces will be committed to combat Iraq,”
Abbott said.
