U.S. Presses for Release of Americans Held in Afghanistan
Briefly

U.S. officials have offered Muhammad Rahim's release in negotiations with the Taliban in exchange for two Americans held in Afghanistan, highlighting ongoing diplomatic efforts.
The Taliban has acknowledged holding George Glezmann and Ryan Corbett, who were captured during trips to Afghanistan, demonstrating the complex situation involving foreign nationals.
The fate of Mahmood Habibi, held by the Taliban possibly related to the U.S. drone strike on al-Zawahri, complicates U.S. negotiations and relations with the Taliban.
While U.S. officials remain tight-lipped about the specifics of the negotiations, the potential exchange could reflect a strategic shift in dealing with the Taliban.
