Iraq Group Shows Turk Hostages, Wants Firms Leave
DUBAI (Reuters) - Al Arabiya television aired a videotape on Thursday showing what it said were four of seven Turkish hostages held by an Iraqi Islamist group which demanded that Turkish companies leave Iraq.

The tape showed masked men, armed with automatic rifles, standing behind the four hostages. Arabiya said the group calling itself the Jihad (Holy War) Squadrons also demanded that Turks protest against the U.S. occupation of Iraq.
