Malaysia to review pulling out its troops from Saudi-led coalition

SANAA, June 20 (YPA) – Malaysian Defense Minister Mohammad Sabu confirmed that his country is considering withdrawing Malaysian troops participating in the Saudi-led coalition war on Yemen.

“The Malaysian government is not involved in the conflicts in the Gulf region, and the deployment of army personnel to Saudi Arabia has declined,” Mohammad Sabu told The Malaysian Insight Newspaper.

Why do we want to participate in attacking Yemen, another Islamic nation? He asked, adding that “We do not want to participate in such conflict”.
