Islamic State 'threatens to assassinate' Pope

The Pope has reportedly been warned he is at risk of an assassination attempt by Islamic State extremists.

It is believed that credible threats to Pope Francis' life have been made as he prepares to visit Albania tomorrow.

Iraq's ambassador to the Holy See says Islamic State has clearly declared they want to kill the Pope.

Jihadis from I.S. have bragged in recent weeks about planting their black flag on top of St Peter's Basilica.
