Jordanians express hopes for release of pilot captured by IS
The Jordanian government is seeking proof that a pilot captured by the Islamic State (IS) group is still alive as efforts continue to negotiate a prisoner swap.
It has said it is prepared to exchange an Iraqi woman prisoner for him but IS is only offering to free a Japanese hostage in return, while sparing the pilot's life.
Jordan is part of a US-led coalition that has been carrying out air strikes targeting IS.
