Washington (AFP) - "Crushed and outraged" relatives of an American missing in Iran for nine years expressed deep frustration that he was not included in a prisoner exchange over the weekend.

Search
operations were under way Monday for three Americans kidnapped from a

paramilitary forces opposed to the jihadists have also carried out
kidnappings.Read More ...
