Further supplementary evidence submitted by the Ministry of Defence

You asked for the latest data for our airstrikes in Iraq and Syria, to complement data we have provided to you previously.

The first part of the data you have requested – the data on weapons released by platform and weapon type – is to be found at Annex A. We will provide an update to include data for August 2016, as you have requested.

At Annex B, we are providing the updated figures for June and July 2016, relating to weapons released against target type. Again, we will update you on the data for August.

As always, the data is believed to be complete and correct at the time of issue. Our operational activity databases are frequently reviewed and any errors and omissions are corrected. It is therefore possible that future statements might not match this statement exactly. Naturally, our aim is to ensure that our records are as complete and correct as possible.
