[mhm]

RAF aircraft have destroyed an Islamic State (IS) rocket launcher in the latest of a series of air strikes against the militant group in Iraq.

Two GR4 Tornado jets had been offering air support to the Kurdish Peshmerga in northern Iraq when the troops reported coming under fire by IS north of Mosul.

On Wednesday RAF forces destroyed the IS rocket launcher that fired at the troops, the Ministry of Defence said.

RAF forces have carried out air strikes against IS in Iraq since September.
