France To Beef Up Presence In Jordan For ISIS Fight
2014-11-27
[Ynet] The French government said that six Mirage fighter jets would be deployed to Jordan Thursday to assist in the fight against ISIS.

Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian told a weekly cabinet meeting that the deployment of the six fighters would "strengthen our presence in this theater of operations," according to government front man Stephane Le Foll.

French Prime Minister Manuel Valls had already Sunday announced the deployment of the fighters to Jordan, to join forces against the krazed killer group in Iraq but the arrival of the warplanes was expected at the end of the month.

La Belle France already has nine Rafale fighter jets in the United Arab Emirates as it participates in U.S.-led air strikes in Iraq.
