Published June 02, 2007
The respected BBC reporter in Gaza, Alan Johnston, has been seen alive for the first time, on a video posted to Islamic site al-Ekhlaas. The video was released some 81 days after Johnston was abducted on his way home from work as the Gaza correspondent for the BBC - the only Western reporter permanently based in the coastal strip.
The video was apparently released by the “Army of Islam”, finally revealed as the abductors of Alan Johnston.
