ISIS: Japanese hostage beheaded

A newly distributed ISIS release appears to show the decapitated body of captive Japanese journalist Kenji Goto, after an English-language lecture is given by masked ISIS member "Jihadi John" to the people of Japan.

The 1-minute, seven-second video was released Saturday as others before it, by ISIS media wing Al Furqan Media, and cannot be authenticated by CNN.

The video opens with a black slate that reads "A Message to Japan." The video then shows a kneeling Goto wearing an orange outfit. The man known as "Jihadi John" is standing behind him.

The terrorist speaks while holding a knife in his left hand. The video cuts to black as the militant puts the knife to Goto's throat. It then shows the apparent result of the decapitation. It's not clear who conducted the execution.

The fate of a Jordanian pilot captured by ISIS in Syria, Muath al-Kaseasbeh, was unclear. He is not mentioned in the video.
