French Hostage in Algeria Beheaded After Demands Rejected
Islamic Militants in Algeria have beheaded French hostage Herve Gourde, a tourist and mountain guide, after France said it would not meet its demands. France's response:
As grave as the situation is, we will give in to no blackmail, no pressure, no ultimatum," he said. "No terrorist group can in any way influence France's position, will, and freedom."
The group in Algeria is called Jund al-Khilafa. It recently pledged allegiance to ISIS.
