Exclusive: Inside British Army's mission in Iraq helping to defeat IS
Показать описание
The 1st Battalion, The Royal Yorkshire Regiment – to use their new and proper title – are a proud bunch of soldiers.
Their cap badge is associated with more than 330 years of history, the latest chapter of which is being written by personnel from Burma Company, who are currently deployed on operations in northern Iraq.
Some might be surprised to learn that the British Army is active on the ground in Iraq 20 years on from the start of Operation Telic.
But the situation today is different. This operation is called Shader, and UK troops – alongside dozens of other nations – are in the region at the strict invitation of the Kurdish-Iraqi government.
But why is the British Army there, and what exactly is it doing?
Forces News was granted exclusive access to embed with the soldiers of 1 Royal Yorks as they conducted operations in the region around Erbil, the capital of the region known as Kurdistan.
