Australia Cabinet Authorizes Military Air Strikes in Iraq

Australia's cabinet on Friday authorized military air strikes in Iraq on the so-called "Daesh" [ISIL] extremist group and the deployment of special forces troops to fight the militants, Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said.

"...Subject to final legal documentation, cabinet has authorized the deployment of Australian special forces into Iraq to advise and assist Iraqi forces," Abbott said.

"It could take quite some time, but we will know that we are succeeding, when ISIL are in retreat, not in advance...," he said.

He added that, "It's very much in Australia's national interest that we do this useful work to disrupt and degrade ISIL at home and abroad."

Australia deployed some 600 troops and several aircraft to the United Arab Emirates in mid-September as it geared up to join the US-led air assault.

The announcement comes days after Australian military jets took part in support "missions" over Iraq with the US-led coalition.
