Third British Hostage Appears In New ISIS Propaganda Video

According to a report on Dailymail UK, A third British hostage has appeared in a new Islamic State propaganda video just a day after more than 100 Muslim leaders pleaded with the terror group to release another UK aid worker. The video, which has not been independently verified, has been reported by other news organisations, but our source MailOnline has chosen not to identify the hostage or what he says. The footage is markedly different to recent videos released by the jihadi militants in recent weeks.

Appearing to read from a script, the man speaks calmly while sitting behind a desk in a darkened room. It comes just a day after more than 100 Muslim leaders signed a statement begging the jihadi group to release British aid worker Alan Henning.

The Islamic State, which controls territory in Syria and Iraq, has already beheaded two American journalists and one British aid worker in recent weeks in what it said was reprisal for U.S. air strikes against the group in Iraq.

Mr Henning is currently facing death at the hands of ISIS's British executioner 'Jihadi John' and was paraded before the cameras in a video of fellow hostage David Haines's murder. Dozens of Imams from around the UK criticised the terror group as 'monsters' for the brutal murder of Mr Haines and insisted killing Mr Henning would be 'un-Islamic'.
