The Pakistani Taliban has declared its allegiance to Islamic State (IS), just hours after the group murdered British hostage Alan Henning.
Addressing IS in a message sent to the news agency Reuters, Taliban spokesman Shahidullah Shahid ordered fighters to support the jihadist group in its campaign to set up a global Islamic caliphate.
"Oh our brothers, we are proud of you in your victories. We are with you in your happiness and your sorrow," the spokesman wrote in an email sent from an unknown location.
"In these troubled days, we call for your patience and stability, especially now that all your enemies are united against you. Please put all your rivalries behind you.
"All Muslims in the world have great expectations of you ... We are with you, we will provide you with Mujahideen (fighters) and with every possible support."
The statement came a day after IS published a video showing the murder of British aid worker Alan Henning, the fourth Western hostage to be killed in recent weeks .
The video warns that a former US soldier turned charity worker, believed to be Peter Kassig, will be the next victim.
It follows the UK Parliament's decision last week to launch airstrikes against IS in Iraq where it controls large areas of land.
A US-led international coalition is also striking IS targets in Syria.
The extremist group is reported to be making steps to gain ground in Pakistan and Afghanistan, where Taliban insurgents currently hold sway.
IS activists have recently been spotted in the Pakistani city of Peshawar distributing pamphlets praising the group.
