The UK remained steadfast in its military action against Islamic State militants in Iraq, despite the release on Friday of a video depicting the execution of a second British hostage, Alan Henning.
"ISIL's brutality will not persuade us to change our approach. Indeed, the senseless murder of an innocent man only reinforces our resolve to defeat this terrorist organisation and to eradicate the threat they pose to Britons - whether those in the region or here on the streets of the UK," said a Downing Street spokesperson, following Prime Minister Cameron's meeting with intelligence agencies, Foreign Office, Home Office, police and military on Saturday morning.
"The Prime Minister was updated on work overnight to take down the video of the barbaric murder. He also discussed with officials the collective effort to hunt down the murderers," the spokesperson added.
"The PM was clear that we must keep doing all we can to ensure that these terrorists are found and brought to justice for their heinous crimes and we will keep working with our US partners and those in the region to do this."
