The Dhaka Times Desk IS beheaded an American journalist in response to US airstrikes on IS in Iraq. International media reported this.

The Islamic State militant group, also known as IS, beheaded an American journalist in response to a US attack in Iraq. The group recently released a video in this regard. James Foley, the American journalist whom they beheaded, has been missing since November 22, 2012.

The released video said that they did this in protest against the continued US airstrikes against IS in Iraq. Meanwhile, the US administration is verifying detailed information about such a tragic fate of its own country's citizens. The White House wants to confirm that the person in the video and their citizen are the same John Keen after seeing the video tape released by IS.

After this incident, the journalist Foli's mother, Denny, felt proud of her son and said, "My son gave his life to show the suffering of people to the world."

Meanwhile, Foley has spent most of his career covering war-torn countries in the Middle East, including Syria, Iraq, Iran, and Afghanistan.

In that 5-minute video spread by IS online, it is said that this beheading was done after Obama announced the US airstrikes on IS Nirmul. Meanwhile, the White House said, if the video is true, 'action' will be taken in this regard.

It should be noted that recently the United States has been conducting airstrikes against the terrorist organization ISIS in Iraq. The United States has always said that the United States is committed to eliminating terrorists.
