Britain dismisses new ISIL video
Britain has dismissed as propaganda a new video released by ISIL (Daesh) terrorists in which the group threatens attacks against the country.
The office of Prime Minister David Cameron announced that it is examining the video which purportedly shows nine attackers involved in the November Paris attacks that killed 130 people.
"We're in the process of examining this latest propaganda video which is another move from an appalling terrorist group that's clearly in decline and in retreat," Cameron's spokeswoman told reporters.
In the video the jihadists, speaking in French and in Arabic, say their "message is addressed to all the countries taking part in the (US-led) coalition" that has been fighting the ISIL in Syria and Iraq since September 2014.
It was not clear why the group released the video more than two months after the November 13 bloodshed, reported AFP.
Cameron has earlier this month branded another ISIL video containing threats against Britain as "desperate stuff".
"This is an organisation that's losing territory, it's losing ground, it's, I think, increasingly losing anybody's sympathy," Cameron said at the time.
The ISIL assailants on November 13 attacked several bars, restaurants, and a concert hall with guns and explosive belts.
Seven of them died during the attacks and two in a subsequent police raid but the total number of those directly involved is still unclear.
Four suspects remain at large, including one who allegedly drove suicide bombers to the French national stadium outside Paris, as well as another who is suspected of having helped scout out the attack sites.
