The hostages with the Abu Sayyaf.

PETALING JAYA: Two Canadians and a Norwegian have made a desperate video appeal to the Philippines military to immediately stop bombing the Abu Sayyaf terror group’s hideout in Jolo island where they are being held as hostages.

“We are in grave danger ... please help us,” is their message in the video released by the Abu Sayyaf group which is also holding two Malaysians, Thien Nyuk Fun, 50, and Bernard Then Ted Fen, 39, in the southern Philippines island.
