Junko Ishido, center left, the mother of Japanese journalist Kenji Goto who is being held hostage by the Islamic State group, listens to reporter's question during a press conference at her home in Koganei on the outskirts of Tokyo late Thursday, Jan. 29, 2015. Jordan on Thursday demanded proof from Islamic State militants that a Jordanian pilot they are holding is still alive, despite purported threats by the group to kill the airman at sunset unless an al-Qaida prisoner is freed from death row in Jordan. The militants' deadline passed without word on the fate of the pilot, Lt. Muath al-Kaseasbeh, and a fellow hostage, Goto.
