The Taliban has released George Glezmann, an American airline mechanic from Atlanta abducted more than two years ago in Afghanistan, in a deal brokered by U.S. and Qatari negotiators, the State Department said on Thursday morning.
Glezmann was traveling as a tourist in Afghanistan when he was seized by the Taliban's intelligence services in December 2022. He was designated by the U.S. as wrongfully detained in 2023.
