The Arabic television station Al-Jazeera broadcasted a new video of kidnapped aid worker Margaret Hassan.

The station showed footage of Hassan asking for British troops to be pulled out of Iraq. She also urged Care International, the aid agency she works for, to close its office in Baghdad, and appealed for Iraqi women prisoners to be freed.

Hassan, who is being held by an unknown group, was seized last week while at her Baghdad office.
