Jordan Steps Up Role In Coalition Against IS

We use cookies to give you the best experience. If you do nothing we'll assume that it's ok.

Jordan is stepping up its role in the US-led coalition against Islamic State – in an attempt to "undermine, degrade and eventually finish" the terror organisation which murdered one of its pilots.

King Abdullah has cut short a visit to Washington in order to fly home, as protesters in Amman demand revenge for the killing of Mu'ath Al Kassasbeh, who burned alive in a cage by IS militants.

The country executed two prisoners after the video was published online.

One of them was the Iraqi would-be suicide bomber Sajida al Rishawi, who Jordan had offered to release if Al Kassasbeh was returned safely.

But there was no forthcoming proof that the hostage was still alive, and the Jordanian military now believes that he was killed on 3 January.

Safi, the pilot's father, said he "considers Mu'ath a martyr to God", and called on the Jordanian government "to take revenge for Mu'ath's blood".
