Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of the presence of Daesh in Gaza and the West Bank.
This question was answered on 2nd March 2016
The Government's assessment is that there are groups and individuals in the West Bank and (primarily) in Gaza who sympathise with or self-identify as Daesh but are not formally affiliated with them. We remain concerned about a possible Daesh presence and continue to monitor the situation closely.
