CairoEgypt’s council approved troops for Saudi Arabia, a lawmaker says.
Houthi missiles and drones attacked Riyadh’s airport and Saudi Aramco facilities after a Yemen truce collapsed.
Article 152 requires National Defence Council consultation and a two-thirds House vote before troops fight abroad.
Sisi said any action would be defensive and only at Riyadh’s request.
The House of Representatives may vote Tuesday, and any deployment still needs a Saudi request.
