Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what estimate he has made of the number of foreign combatants transferred from Syria to engage in armed conflict in Libya.
We are aware of reports of foreign combatants being transferred from Syria to engage in armed conflict in Libya. The picture remains unclear. The UK continues to play a diplomatic role in calling for all parties to de-escalate, support a ceasefire and to get behind the UN-led political process.
