Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, in which countries the extra UK military personnel deployed to Cyprus and the Eastern Mediterranean since 7 October 2023 are based; and how many personnel are deployed in each of those countries as of 27 November 2023.

It has not been possible to obtain the information in the time available. I will write to the hon. Member and place a copy of my letter in the Library of the House.
