U.K. police are studying a video released by Islamic State in which a militant with a British accent calls on Muslims back home to join the extremist group’s fight in Syria and Iraq.

The film, featuring a man identified as Abu Saeed al-Britani, was posted on the Internet about the same time yesterday as another showing the beheading of British hostage Alan Henning. Prime Minister David Cameron raised the al-Britani recording in a meeting of intelligence, police and military officials today, his office said in a statement.
