Jordan’s Talks With ISIS for Hostage Release Said to Fail

The Jordanian information minister, Mohammad al-Momani, said Jordan was still waiting for ISIS to give proof of life for the Jordanian pilot it captured in order to carry out a prisoner exchange.

There was no official statement from the Jordanian government that Ms. Rishawi was still in the country, but officials repeated their position that they required proof that Lieutenant Kasasbeh was still alive.
