The Taliban has freed an American citizen, George Glezmann, after holding him in Afghanistan for years, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Thursday.
“George was wrongfully detained in Afghanistan for two and a half years, but now he’s on his way to be reunited with his wife Aleksandra,” Rubio wrote in a statement posted on social media platform X.
Glezmann, an airline mechanic from Atlanta, is the third American detainee to be released by the Taliban since January of this year. He was seized by the Taliban’s intelligence services in December 2022 and was designated by the U.S. government as wrongfully detained the following year.
