IS warns that hostages have ‘24 hours to live’
The message, posted online, again demanded the release of Sajida al-Rishawi, an Iraqi woman sentenced to death in Jordan for involvement in a 2005 terror attack that killed 60 people. It also mentioned for the first time Jordanian pilot Mu’ath al-Kaseasbeh, who is a captive of Islamic State.
The video matched a message released over the weekend, though neither bore the logo of Islamic State’s al-Furqan media arm. The weekend video showed a still photo of Kenji Goto holding what appears to be a photo of the body of Japanese hostage Haruna Yukawa.
