British Prime Minister David Cameron signaled that he would push ahead with plans for a vote in the British parliament to approve military action against ISIS militants in Syria, The Daily Telegraph newspaper said.
Cameron was quoted as saying that British military attacks in Syria “may well become possible.” Previously, Cameron has said he sees a strong case for extending British air strikes to Syria from Iraq.
Cameron lost a parliamentary vote on the use of force in Syria in 2013. Consequently, British bombing so far has only targeted ISIS in neighboring Iraq.
Later on Sunday Cameron said that Vladimir Putin’s decision to take military action in Syria to support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad was a “terrible mistake”.
