Prime Minister David Cameron has announced that British fighter jets are being deployed immediately to enforce a United Nations no-fly zone in Libya. "At Cabinet this morning, we agreed the UK will play its part," Mr Cameron told the House of Commons.
"Britain will deploy Tornados and Typhoons as well as air-to-air refuelling and surveillance aircraft."
Mr Cameron added: "Our forces will join an international operation to enforce the resolution if Gaddafi fails to comply with its demand that he ends attacks on civilians.
"Preparations to deploy these aircraft have already started and in the coming hours they will move to bases from where they can start to take the necessary action."
