[Five Americans jailed for years in Iran
and widely regarded as hostages are on their way home to the United States. The last pieces in a controversial swap mediated by Qatar fell into place when $6bn (£4.8bn) of Iranian funds held in South Korea reached banks in Doha. It triggered the departure of the four American men and one woman in Tehran, who are also Iranian citizens, on a chartered flight to Qatar's capital. They were met by senior US officials and will be flown later to Washington. The Americans include 51-year-old businessman Siamak Namazi, who has spent nearly eight years in Tehran's notorious Evin prison, as well as businessman Emad Shargi, 59, and environmentalist Morad Tahbaz, 67, who also holds British nationality.] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-66841137 https://news.sky.com/story/briton-mo...-deal-12964115 Some Good news for the 5.
