Two Tunisian reporters have been executed by Isis, the Islamic terrorist organisation.

The two, Sofien Chourabi and Nadhir Ktari, had been kidnapped since last September.

They were killed at Barqah, south of Benghazi.

According to the Isis communique which also carried a photo of the two just before they were killed, the two had been condemned to death for working for a television station "that offended Islam".

The area where they were killed is considered as under the command of al Baghdadi, the hard-line Islamic preacher.
