The Islamic State group released a video Sunday purporting to show nine jihadists involved in the November Paris attacks that killed 130 people, in which they threaten "coalition" countries including Britain.
The video posted on jihadist websites is entitled "Kill wherever you find them", and shows four Belgians, three French citizens and two Iraqis said to be responsible for the attacks.
It also depicts the nine carrying out atrocities before the rampage in Paris, including beheading and shooting people described as hostages.
In the video, the jihadists, speaking in French and in Arabic, say their "message is addressed to all the countries taking part in the (U.S.-led) coalition" that has been fighting IS in Syria and Iraq since September 2014.
The footage also shows a picture of British Prime Minister David Cameron accompanied by the words in English: "Whoever stands in the ranks of kufr (unbelievers) will be a target for our swords."
President Francois Hollande said the video would not deter France from its fight against terrorism.
"Nothing will deter us, no threat will make France waver in the fight against terrorism," the French president told reporters in New Delhi during an official visit to India.
The video, produced by IS's Al-Hayat Media Centre, describes the attackers as "lions" who "brought France to its knees".
The footage shows images of the Paris strike claimed by Islamic State as well as security operations by French special forces during the onslaught.
It was not clear why the group released the video more than two months after the November 13 bloodshed in which jihadists armed with guns and suicide belts launched coordinated attacks on Paris bars, restaurants, and a concert hall.
Seven of them died during the attacks and two in a subsequent police raid but the total number of those directly involved is still unclear
