UK air strikes have killed around 330 Isil fighters in the past year, the Defence Secretary has said.
Michael Fallon said the number is "highly approximate" and covers the period from September last year until the end of last month.
British extremists Reyaad Khan and Ruhul Amin were killed by a drone strike in the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (Isil) stronghold of Raqqah on August 21. Junaid Hussain, the Isil fighter who once hacked Tony Blair, was killed in a separate strike days later.
Downing Street said the decision to authorise the use of remote RAF aircraft to strike individuals in Syria plotting attacks on the UK was taken "some months ago".
A meeting of senior members of the National Security Council, chaired by David Cameron earlier this year, received advice from the Attorney General that drone attacks would be legal on grounds of self-defence.
