Following the invasion of Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates condemned the Iraqi aggression, supported Kuwaiti independence and rapidly opened all of its airports for coalition use. Additionally, ports and shipyard facilities in the UAE were made available for the deployment of coalition forces. The UAE Armed Forces participated in the coalition with an army battalion along with a squadron of Dassault Mirage 5 and Mirage 2000. Six Emirati troops were killed in action.
