Militants of the terrorist organization Islamic State have spread a video message, in which they threatened to organize terrorist attacks in Germany and Austria, as well as to kill German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

To back up their words, they executed two hostages. The murder was committed in Palmyra, which is held by IS.

The militants shown in the video footage spoke in German, which once again confirms that many militants in the ranks of the jihadists are from Germany and Austria, Gazeta.ru reports.
