Jihadist group ISIS has released a video apparently showing the first public appearance of its elusive leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi.
In the Ramadan sermon footage, said to have been filmed in a mosque in the Iraqi city of Mosul on Friday, he calls on all Muslims to obey him.
Baghdadi, the self-proclaimed caliph of a state straddling Iraq and Syria, is increasingly seen as more powerful than al Qaeda's leader.
The 21-minute video's release on the internet follows reports he was killed or injured in an attack.
The recording shows a bearded man in a black robe and black turban ascending a pulpit below the black flag of the Islamic State.
If confirmed, it would be Baghdadi's first public appearance.
Omar al Shishani has appeared in recent propaganda videos released by ISIS "God has granted your brothers, the mujahedin, victory and a conquest after years of patience and holy struggle, and enabled them to achieve their objective," he said.
"I was appointed in charge of you, though I am not the best or better than you, so if you see me in the right, then help me, and if you see me in the wrong, advise me and put me right."
The Iraqi government said the video is "indisputably" not Baghdadi.
"We have analysed the footage ... and found it is a farce," said Interior Ministry spokesman Brigadier General Saad Maan.
In an audio tape released last week, Baghdadi called on Muslims to take up arms and flock to the caliphate ISIS has declared on captured Syrian and Iraqi soil.
Reyaad Khan has had his assets frozen by the UK government Baghdadi, born in Samarra in 1971 according to US intelligence, joined the insurgency sparked by the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
At one point he spent time in an American military prison in Iraq.
In 2005, American forces said they had killed "Abu Dua", one of his known aliases, on the Iraq-Syria border.
The US Treasury declared him a terrorist three years ago, and there is now a $10m (£5.9m) bounty on his head.
The video comes as three British citizens thought to be fighting alongside ISIS in Syria have had their assets frozen by the UK Treasury.
Reyaad Khan and Nasser Muthana, both 20 and from Cardiff, and Abdul Raqib Amin, who grew up in Aberdeen, were seen in a propaganda video released by ISIS last month.
