American Hostage in Yemen Freed

One of several Americans being held by Houthi rebels in Yemen has been released, according to a State Department official. The man had reportedly been injured and is now in Oman, but the official did not reveal identifying information. The State Department has been working to broker the release of four Americans, most of whom worked in the private sector. One of the four is said to have dual U.S.-Yemeni citizenship.
