ISIL claimed it used a Schweppes soda can containing
explosives to down the Russian plane.
The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group has
claimed it killed one Norwegian and one Chinese captive
and that it downed the Russian airliner over Egypt with
explosives hidden in a soda can.
ISIL had two months ago demanded a ransom for the
release of the men.
The announcements came in the latest issue of the group's English-language magazine Dabiq on Wednesday, which contained a page that appeared to show the bodies of the two captives. A caption on the image said: "executed after being abandoned by kafir nations and organizations." ''Kafir" is the Arabic word for infidel. The group had earlier identified the Norwegian man as Ole Johan Grimsgaard-Ofstad, 48, from Oslo, and the Chinese man as Fan Jinghui, 50, a freelance consultant from Beijing. It did not say when or where the two were captured.
