“This is going to take time. It is complex and it is difficult what we are asking our pilots to do, and our thoughts should be with them and their families as they commence this important work,” he added.

Syrian state media says British airstrikes are illegal

Syrian state media outlets claim the British parliament’s decision to extend airstrikes against Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) from Iraq into Syria is in contravention of international law.

The claims come a day after MPs voted to bomb targets within the war-torn country and hours after the first sorties hit an oilfield in the east of the country.

The Independent reported that the Al-Baath newspaper – which reportedly answers to President Bashar Assad’s own party – said Prime Minister David Cameron was running a “PR campaign” in support of a “US-led show in violation of the UN charter.”

"Ini tidak akan menjadi cepat," katanya.

Al-Thawra, another official newspaper, said Cameron and the House of Commons vaulted “over international legitimacy as usual.”

British politics is still reeling from the decision in parliament last night to extend airstrikes to Syria.

Analysis indicates “the strikes were successful,” the Ministry of Defence (MoD) claimed.

Fallon told the BBC he had approved the targets before the House of Commons vote on Wednesday evening, and gave permission for the raids to go ahead once MPs had rubberstamped extending airstrikes.

He added that airstrikes against extremists are likely to continue for years.

“This is not going to be quick,” he said.

The result will be welcomed by Prime Minister David Cameron, who previously pledged to only hold a vote once he was guaranteed the support of parliament.

Namun, majoriti Ahli Parlimen Buruh - 153 - dan 16 ahli-ahli Kabinet Bayangan disokong Corbyn dalam kes terhadap melancarkan kempen pengeboman di luar negara baru di Britain. 53 Ahli Parlimen dari Parti Kebangsaan Scotland (SNP) juga membuang undi "Tidak", bersama-sama dengan 3 Ahli Parlimen Demokratik Sosial dan Parti Buruh.

Still, the majority of Labour MPs – 153 – and 16 members of the Shadow Cabinet supported Corbyn in his case against launching Britain’s new overseas bombing campaign. Fifty-three MPs from the Scottish National Party (SNP) also cast “No” votes, along with three Social Democratic and Labour Party MPs. Others opposing the motion were two Liberal Democrats, two Plaid Cymru MPs, and one Green MP.

Setiausaha Luar Philip Hammond berkata serangan udara akhirnya akan membuka jalan untuk satu pertempuran di atas darat, yang katanya adalah satu-satunya cara untuk mengalahkan IS.

"Serangan udara sahaja tidak akan menyelesaikan ISIL," katanya "tetapi mereka akan dari masa ke masa merendahkan ISIL dan memaksa perubahan dalam tingkah laku."

Hammond berkata serangan darat akan diperlukan pada akhirnya untuk menggulingkan ISIL dari kubu kuat Raqqa itu.

"Akhirnya ada perlu menjadi serangan darat di Raqqa," katanya. "Ini akan datang dalam beberapa bulan atau mungkin tahun."

Undi pada petang Rabu telah bertemu dengan protes anti-perang di seluruh UK, dengan penunjuk perasaan di London pementasan “die-in”  di luar Majlis Parlimen yang menghalang jalan raya dan membawa trafik terhenti.

Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said airstrikes would ultimately pave the way for a battle on the ground, which he said is the only way to defeat IS.

“Airstrikes alone will not finish ISIL,” he said “but they will over time degrade ISIL and force a change in its behavior.”

Hammond said a ground assault will be needed in the end to oust ISIL from its Raqqa stronghold.

“Ultimately there will need to be a ground assault on Raqqa,” he said. “That will come in months or perhaps years.”

The vote on Wednesday evening was met with anti-war protests throughout the UK, with demonstrators in London staging a “die-in” outside the Houses of Parliament that blocked roads and brought traffic to a standstill.
