UK Prime Minister David Cameron has suffered a blow in his push for British forces to take part in bombing Daesh targets, aslo known as ISIL, in Syria, after the UK parliament’s influential Foreign Affairs Select Committee concluded that Cameron had “not adequately addressed concerns” about military action.

Responding to Cameron’s address to parliament last week, where his put forward the case for Britain to join the US-led international coalition in carrying out airstrikes on Daesh targets, the committee said the prime minister had failed to justify airstrikes in Syria.

The decision comes as MPs on Wednesday debate and vote on whether to carry out strikes in Syria, with concerns the Foreign Affairs Select Committee’s findings may hinder Cameron’s hopes of building a political consensus behind military action.
