CCTV has emerged of the moment four people were abducted from their hotel resort in the Philippines.
Gunmen can be seen escorting three tourists and a hotel manager across a bridge, with two of the abducted wearing what appears to be just a towel and a nightdress.
Watch the CCTV footage here:
At least 11 armed men are believed to have carried out the abduction, seizing two Canadians, a Filipino woman and the hotel's Norwegian manager.
The abduction took place at the Holiday OceanView Samal Resort on the southern island of Samal near Davao City.
The gunmen had also attempted to seize a couple off their yacht but they resisted and escaped by jumping off the boat.
The identities of those abducted have been revealed by Filipino police, with the Norwegian resort manager named as Kjartan Sekkingstad and the Canadians as John Risdel and Robert Hall. It is believed the Filipino woman is a partner of one of the Canadians.
Helicopters and planes were dispatched by both the country's police and military in the hope of finding those kidnapped, scanning the waters and the shores around the island.
No group has yet claimed responsibility but it is likely the group's aim will be to negotiate a ransom fee.
A naval blockade has been set up to stop the abductors from reaching Basilan Island, where Abu Sayyaj militants are known to keep hostages.
The Abu Sayyaf captured 21 people from a Malaysian resort in 2000, most of them European tourists, while three Americans and 17 Filipinos were seized in 2001.
