Americans released in historic prisoner swap arrive in US

Three Americans recently released from Russian custody were reunited with their families early Friday at Joint Base Andrews outside of Washington.

Former U.S. Marine Paul Whelan and American journalists Alsu Kurmasheva and Evan Gershkovich were met with cheers as they left the plane that returned them to U.S. soil. U.S. President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris greeted the freed Americans with hugs.
