Jordan has renewed its offer on Sunday of an al Qaeda prisoner for a Jordanian fighter pilot. The news of the renewed offer comes a day after ISIS released a video purportedly showing the militants beheading a Japanese hostage, the journalist Kenji Goto. The video made no mention of the pilot. ISIS has demanded the release of Sajida al-Rishawi who is facing execution for her role in triple hotel bombings in Jordan in 2005. Jordan, however, says it cannot free her without proof the pilot is alive.
