"Today,
the Saudi kingdom announced its readiness to participate with ground
troops with the US-led coalition against ISIL, because we now have the
experience in Yemen," Brigadier General Ahmed Asseri told Al Jazeera.
"We
know that air strikes cannot be enough and that a ground operation is
needed. We need to combine both to achieve better results on the
ground."
Asseri didn't elaborate on how many soldiers the kingdom could send.
The Saudi offer is expected to be
discussed when the United States convenes a meeting of defence ministers
from coalition countries fighting ISIL in Brussels next week.
