Final seven South Korea hostages freed
The captives were handed over to Reto Stocker, head of the International Committee of the Red Cross delegation in Afghanistan, in two stages on a road in Ghazni province in a central part of the country, an Associated Press reporter at the scene said.
Two men and two women were released first. Hours later, two women and one man who were covered in dust walked out of the desert, accompanied by three armed men, and also were turned over to waiting ICRC officials a few miles from the earlier site. None of the freed South Koreans made any comments.
