A day after Jordan said it’s willing to do a prisoner exchange with ISIS, the terrorist group extended its deadline for the swap, saying Jordan must present attempted suicide bomber Sajida al-Rishawi at the Turkish border by sundown on Thursday. In the new message released late on Wednesday, a voice believed to be that of Japanese ISIS hostage Kenji Goto says in English, “If Sajida al-Rishawi is not ready for exchange for my life at the Turkish border by Thursday sunset, 29th of January, Mosul time, the Jordanian pilot Mu’adh al-Kasasibah will be killed immediately.” It’s unclear whether ISIS is willing to release both hostages or what will happen to Goto if their demand isn’t met.
