ISIS terrorists mark Christmas by beheading 10 Christians on video by Spencer Neale

Ten Christians were beheaded and one other was shot dead by an ISIS-linked group in Nigeria in an act designed to coincide with Christmas.

A video recorded before the execution in the war-torn state of Borno shows a group of 12 men and a blurred-out woman pleading for help from Christian organizations and Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari.

“I appeal to the federal government to come to our aid,” said hostage Bitrus Zakka Bwala, a lecturer at the College of Education in Nigeria’s Yobe State. “As you can see, behind me are fellow Christians who were arrested at various points and brought to the base of the [Islamic State West Africa Province].”

Nigeria’s ISWAP, a break-off group of Boko Haram, released a 56-second video the day after Christmas that shows the 11 Christians being slain. After the first was shot, the other 10 were beheaded.

Venezuela’s currency so worthless it’s mostly being used for making crafts By Lucia I. Suarez Sang

Venezuela – once one of the more prosperous countries in Latin America – has been driven into such economic and political turmoil that its currency is no longer of any use.

However, that has not stopped Venezuelan bolivares from becoming a commodity elsewhere.

Across the border in Colombia, Hector Cordero uses the currency to make wallets and purses, which he sells to tourists in Colombia.

“These bolivares soberanos notes are worth nothing,” Cordero, who is from Caracas, told Al Jazeera. “These notes I use are not circulating any more since last year.”issi
