British journalist John Cantlie, being held hostage in Syria by the Islamic State (ISIS) terror group, has appeared in a new video in which he claims the US failed to rescue him and fellow hostages in July.
The nine-minute film, the seventh in a series titled ‘lend Me Your Ears’, shows the freelance photojournalist behind a desk and apparently reading from a script, following the pattern of most of the previous videos featuring him.
Speaking from behind a desk and dressed in an orange jumpsuit, Cantlie, who has previously explained that he is speaking under duress, blames British Prime Minister David Cameron for not going far enough to help him.
Cantlie describes how IS militants were put into cars and moved days before a US raid on July 4, American Independence Day, to save the hostages.
