Lawmakers criticize UK’s participation in fighting ISIL

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com)—A panel of British lawmakers criticized the U.K. government for not doing enough in the fight against Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, but it stopped short of calling for the deployment of combat troops.

The cross-party Defence Committee said in a report published Thursday that the U.K.’s contribution had been “strikingly modest”—providing fewer personnel than other countries in the coalition that fights the ISIL terrorists in Iraq and Syria. /End/
