Turkey and Saudi Arabia are ready to put boots on the ground in Syria under the pretext of fighting Daesh. Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Chavushoglu says Ankara and Riyadh could enter into a ground operation in Syria if necessary. According to Chavushoglu, Saudi Arabia is also going to deploy warplanes at Injirlik, an airbase near the southern Turkish city of Adana. Saudi officials have already visited the base. It’s not clear how many jets will be sent to the military site. Riyadh has been pushing for a ground invasion of Syria by forces from regional allies. Damascus has warned against such a move, saying foreign aggressors will return home in coffins.
