<p>The mandate, which requires parliamentary approval, was endorsed by ministers on today, it was reported.</p>
<p>It is not yet clear when lawmakers will consider it, but Chancellor Angela Merkel’s governing coalition has a large majority and approval looks assured.</p>
<p>Following the Paris attacks, Ms Merkel agreed to honour a request from France to provide support for its operations against IS in Syria.</p>
<p>Germany plans to send reconnaissance aircraft, tanker planes and a warship to the region in support roles, but will not actively engage in combat.</p>
<p>Foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said that he does not expect Germany to have 1,200 soldiers participating at any one time.</p>
