American Woman Freed from Taliban Custody Thanks Trump

News summary

Faye Hall, an American woman detained by the Taliban in Afghanistan since February for unauthorized drone use, was released with the assistance of Qatari negotiators and is now safe at the Qatari Embassy in Kabul. In a video shared by former President Donald Trump, Hall expressed gratitude to him, stating she was proud to be an American citizen and mentioned that other women in Afghan jails look to Trump as a 'savior.' Hall, who was traveling with a British couple and their Afghan translator, was reportedly released after the U.S. dropped bounties on senior Taliban officials, including a $10 million reward for Sirajuddin Haqqani. Former U.S. envoy to Kabul, Zalmay Khalilzad, confirmed her release and stated that she would soon return to the U.S. Hall's case follows a series of U.S. citizen releases from Taliban custody, raising concerns as other detainees remain. The British couple she was with remains in Taliban custody, and their family has expressed worries regarding their well-being.
