US Secretary of State John Kerry is meeting foreign ministers from around the world in Paris to discuss how to defeat Islamic State (IS) militants².

Opening the conference, French President Francois Hollande said the threat from IS was global and the response must be global.

About 40 countries, including 10 Arab states, have signed up to a coalition³ to help fight IS in Iraq and Syria.

Meanwhile, France says it has begun surveillance flights over Iraq.

"This very morning, the first reconnaissance flights will be carried out in agreement with the Iraqi and Emirati authorities," Defence Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian told French troops on Monday at the Al-Dhafra base in the United Arab Emirates.

Britain revealed in August that Tornado⁴ jets and surveillance aircraft were involved in intelligence gathering⁵ over Iraq.

Several Arab countries have offered to take part in air strikes on IS fighters in Iraq, US officials say.

Mr Kerry said he was "extremely encouraged" by promises of military assistance to tackle the militant¹ group.

He spoke⁶ after a whirlwind tour of the Middle East to try to drum up support for a plan of action unveiled by US President Barack Obama last week.
