According to sources close to the Cabinet and the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Defense, the Netherlands will deliver F-16's in the fight against ISIS, Het Parool reports. Weapons will also be purchased to supply the Kurds in Iraq. A decision will be made about this issue by the Cabinet tomorrow.
