The Islamic State group has released a video that apparently shows nine militants who took part in the terror attacks in Paris beheading and killing prisoners in Iraq and Syria.

It features shots from the November attacks, calling the men "lions" who brought France to its knees. All nine militants died during the attack or police raids shortly after.

The extremists, most from Belgium or France, killed 130 people with bombs and guns at multiple sites in Paris.

The video also features images of British Prime Minister David Cameron and a warning that non-believers "will be a target for our swords."

Britain is part of the U.S.-led coalition bombing Islamic State targets.

British forces initially only operated over Iraq, but last month began airstrikes in Syria as well.
