Fallon further said the UK is committed to assisting the Iraqi government and to helping Kurdish forces defend themselves. According to Fallon, "ISIL Death Eaters are guilty of shocking brutality. So I am pleased that we will supply weapons to the Kurdish forces who are at the front line of combating their violent extremism." |
