Middle East Eye, citing military sources, reported that Egypt sent forces and air defense systems to Saudi Arabia before President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi announced Cairo’s support for Riyadh. The deployment included a squadron of Rafale fighter jets, eight helicopters and four transport aircraft, while warships moved toward the southern Red Sea, near the Bab al-Mandab Strait. Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty confirmed that the military presence began a few months ago, following attacks on Saudi Arabia amid the escalation with Iran, and said Cairo was working to bolster it. On October 17, el-Sisi asked parliament to approve the deployment of Egyptian forces to defend Saudi Arabia if requested.
