UAE to Deploy Commandos to Boost Anti-IS Campaign SUBSCRIPTION SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 2016 JAMADA ALAWWAL 5, 1437 AH No: 16785 Kuwait to sign Bahrain at Barca-Real Eurofighter impasse five rivalry spills jet deal years after into Copa with Italy5 failed uprising8 del47 Rey final UAE to deploy commandos to boost anti-IS campaign Min 07º 150 Fils Pentagon chief Carter meets top UAE officials Max 22º BRUSSELS: The United Arab Emirates wants to deploy commandos to help train forces fighting Islamic State jihadists and will resume its contribution to the US-led air campaign, Pentagon chief Ashton Carter said yesterday. Carter met top UAE officials in Brussels following a land- mark summit of anti-IS coalition members to discuss ways to step up the 18-month fight against IS in Iraq and Syria. “They indicated to me their willingness to do more, which is important, specifically to re-start their participa- tion in the air campaign, secondly to work with us on the ground,” Carter said. UAE special operations forces would help train and advise-as well as arm anti-IS forces in Syria and local partners in Iraq, including Sunni groups and the Kurdish Peshmerga. Carter did not say how big the force would be. “What is needed in the Sunni parts of Iraq is capacity among moderate Sunnis to re-occupy and govern that territory and keep a multi-sectarian Iraq together,” Carter said. “The Emiratis can be an important part of that.” Saudi Arabia too has promised to step up its anti-IS efforts. Like the UAE, it took part in early strikes after the campaign began in mid-2014, but stopped as it turned its attention to the conflict in Yemen. The anti-IS campaign has seen AL-AIN, United Arab Emirates: Jockeys compete in a camel race during the Sheikh Sultan Bin Zayed Al-Nahyan heritage festival, held at the Shweihan racecourse in Al-Ain, on the outskirts of Abu Dhabi yesterday.

Attacks also continued against Israelis and Jews, with a Palestinian stabbing a policeman near a West Bank settlement before being shot dead by the victim, who was lightly wounded. A Jewish 16-year-old was lightly wounded in a new stabbing in Jerusalem by an 18-year-old Palestinian suspect, who was arrested. In the assault by a Jew, the assailant aged about 20 was arrested and told police he carried out the attack in the southern Israeli city of Dimona because “all Arabs are terrorists”. The victims suffered light to moderate wounds. It marked the first such attack against Palestinians after at least 11 stabbings that have targeted Israelis or Jews since Saturday, killing two of them. Later, a woman was shot after a stabbing attempt in northern Israel. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu quickly condemned the stab- bings by the Jewish suspect, a sign of concerns it could trigger further violence. Palestinians have also rioted in annexed east Jerusalem and the West Bank in recent days, with the unrest raising fears of a wider uprising or even a third intifada.
