US President Donald Trump says Iran has allowed an American citizen detained in December 2024 to leave the country.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the woman was now safely outside Iran and in good condition, adding that the United States appreciated what he called a “gesture of goodwill” by Tehran.
