Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh on Sunday said the kidnappers of British Broadcast Corporation correspondent Alan Johnston had made a new video of the abducted journalist wearing what appeared to be explosives around his waist.
Army of Islam later made the one minute and 42-second-long video available on a web site early Monday morning.
In the video, Johnston is wearing an apparent explosives belt of the type suicide bombers use and warning it will be detonated if an attempt is made to free him by force.
