British Tornado jets have completed a third aerial sortie over Iraqi territory. No munitions have been used thus far.

Earlier in the week, the British government voted in favor of RAF airstrikes against IS targets across Iraq and Syria. Six Tornado warplanes were sent into the area, and two missions were carried out on Saturday. A third mission was completed today, but so far, no weaponry has been used.

It remains unclear what these missions involved.
