🗞️ In-depth summary

Iran's judiciary denied claims by former US President Donald Trump that an American prisoner had been freed from its prisons. Iranian state media reported on Thursday that checks confirmed no convicted American prisoner, individual accused of spying for the United States, or any other American detainee matching Trump's description had been released or exchanged. Trump had announced on Truth Social that an unnamed detainee, held during the Biden administration in 2024, was "safely outside of Iran and in good condition," calling it a "gesture of goodwill by Iran." White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt affirmed that "ensuring the return of Americans wrongfully detained or held hostage all over this world remains a priority" for Trump.
