Islamic State (IS) has released a new video that shows British journalist John Cantilie reporting on Aleppo in Syria and calling the video "last in this series".

In the video, the British captive shows parts of Aleppo showing the destruction and saying that it is caused not only by the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad but also U.S.-led coalition airstrikes, reported CNN.

Cantilie is also showing a religious school and a court in the video explaining the Sharia law.

He also cites examples that the robbery punishment there is having one's hand cut off.

Cantlie was kidnapped with American journalist James Foley in November 2012.
