Britain is holding talks with its coalition allies about the possibility of sending more soldiers to Iraq.
It follows an urgent review of troop numbers following Spain's decision to withdraw its 1,300-strong force.

A Ministry of Defence spokeswoman said Britain was discussing "a range of options" with coalition partners.

BBC defence correspondent Paul Adams said this could mean deploying extra troops outside the British-controlled south of the country.

Adams said he understood defence officials were due to hold a series of meetings this week to discuss the options.
