Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, in how many countries the UK is conducting military counterterrorism operations, and in how many of those countries the UK is (a) conducting air and drone strikes, (b) deploying combat troops, (c) constructing or retaining military bases and (d) building the capacity of partners to conduct counterterrorism and other operations.
The information required to answer this question is taking time to collate. I will write to the hon. Member when it is available.
