                    ISIS Claims Beheading of British Hostage

   by VOA News

   The Islamic State terrorist group says it has executed British hostage
   Alan Henning.

   The group released a video late Friday purportedly showing Henning
   being beheaded.

   The video ended with an Islamic State militant threatening another man
   who the militant identified as an American.

   If confirmed, it will be Islamic State's fourth beheading of captive
   foreigners in recent weeks. The militants have beheaded British aid
   worker David Haines as well as American journalists Jim Foley and
   Steven Sotloff.

   Islamic State said the men were beheaded in retaliation for strikes by
   a U.S.-led collation on their positions in Iraq.
