Iraqis Seize 30 Hostages
Advertisements [?]
From Sky News, of all places...

An Arabic television channel has broadcast a tape from an Iraqi group which is threatening to kill 30 foreign hostages.

The group has threatened to cut off the heads of their prisoners unless US forces lift a blockade of the town of Fallujah.

"We are calling for the withdrawal of American and Coalition forces. We have Japanese, Bulgarian, Israeli, American, Spanish and Korean hostages. Their numbers are 30," said a masked man holding a Kalashnikov rifle.
