Philip Hammond: Britain Cannot Rule Out Sending Troops To Libya
UK Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond says that he can not rule out a combat role for British troops in Libya. British ground troops, supported by the Air Force and Navy, may go to Libya to take action against ISIS in the future, Hammond said, just days after telling MPs that no such plans were in the works. RT reports: Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond made his remarks in a Telegraph interview on Sunday. Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) are seeking to turn Libya into a “bolthole” for launching attacks on mainland Europe or Western ships at sea, Hammond argued.
