Denmark says deploying special forces to Syria against ISIS

Denmark will deploy up to 60 special forces to fight ISIS in Syria, the Danish government said on Friday.

NATO member Denmark is part of the U.S.-led operation "Inherent Resolve" against ISIS and already has ground troops operating in Iraq.

"Based on a concrete approach from the coalition, the government has decided to expand the tasks of our special forces in Iraq and Syria," said foreign minister Anders Samuelsen.
