    A pair of Royal Air Force Tornado GR4 strike aircraft take on fuel from a Voyager tanker high in the skies over Iraq, during Operation Shader. Two RAF jets have carried out their first combat mission over Iraq since Parliament authorised air strikes targeting Islamic State (IS) militants. The Ministry of Defence said the two Tornado jets carried out armed reconnaissance operations but did not conduct any air strikes. They gathered intelligence which would be "invaluable", the MoD added. Video released by the Ministry of Defence.
