英国宣布将向沙特阿拉伯部署皇家空军台风战斗机,执行防御性空中巡逻任务1。除战斗机外,英国还将部署Atlas A400M运输机和军事顾问,并继续提供现有的RAF Voyager空中加油支持1。这一举措旨在保护沙特城市和关键基础设施免受也门胡塞武装的攻击1。
胡塞武装自9月开始对沙特发动一系列攻击,已造成沙特19人丧生1。本月早些时候,导弹击中利雅得国王哈立德国际机场,造成13人死亡,为该冲突中沙特最致命事件1。英国首相伯纳姆批准的此次部署被描述为其任期内最重要的军事任务1。进一步细节将通过英国议会书面声明公布1。
The United Kingdom has announced the deployment of Royal Air Force Typhoon fighter jets to Saudi Arabia to conduct defensive aerial operations against attacks by Houthi militants 1. The mission will involve fighter jets flying patrol missions to protect Saudi cities and critical infrastructure from Houthi missiles and drones 1. In addition to the Typhoon fighters, the UK will deploy Atlas A400M transport aircraft and military advisors, while continuing to provide existing RAF Voyager air-to-air refueling support 1.
Earlier this month, a missile strike hit King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, killing 13 people—the deadliest single incident in the conflict so far 1. Houthi attacks have been progressively intensifying since September, resulting in 19 Saudi deaths to date 1. Further details of the deployment will be released through a written statement to the UK Parliament 1.
