Earlier this week Saudi Arabia announced a new 34-country coalition of Muslim nations to fight terrorism, but two of the key countries have said they had no idea they were involved.
The countries from Asia, Africa and the Arab world were combining their efforts to combat extremism, according to the Saudis, who have faced mounting pressure to step up efforts in addressing the threat of extremism.
Delivering the announcement on Tuesday, defence minister Mohammed bin Salman said: "Currently, every Muslim country is fighting terrorism individually... so co-ordinating efforts is very important."
