- A plane carrying five American prisoners released by Iran as part of a high-profile prisoner exchange has landed in the Qatari capital Doha, before the former detainees are expected to then fly on to the United States.
Two of the five Iranians imprisoned by the US have already arrived in Qatar, before they transit on to Iran. The three other released Iranians have decided against returning to Iran, with two staying in the US, and one going on to a third country.
The agreement between the US and Iran has also seen $6bn in Iranian assets held in South Korea unfrozen, triggering the prisoner exchange.

"Qatar is truly a nation of beauty ." I'm with you on that! I can't get enough of these highlights.
Wat a moment ❤
I pray so many who are in jail especially children who cry every night for their parents are released and I'm hoping these Nations who are striving for Peace work on this. 1st no child should be in jail
It's good for both countries 🇮🇷
Qatar is truly a nation of beauty .
Killed immigrant workers from poor nations as they don't have voice
@Mayank Khemka - what did they do ?
Qatar and Middle East practice inhumane work culture towards immigrants, especially from 3rd World and developing Countries.
@佐藤ドゥカティスタ - who told you that ?
Well done 🇺🇸🇮🇷
"Islamic republic of Iran has the right to use their money in any way with out any instructions from thieves" i agree with you friend 😎
This wasn’t diplomacy! This was paying ransom to hostage takers.
That is diplomacy, pay up what you stole and you get your ppl back. Only way to deal with thieves.
What???
Mine UN Qatar 🇶🇦 great job Masha Allah.
Good for you Iran.Getting your money unfrozen will help your nation to buy more arms and ammunition;I am glad to hear that you now have the neuclear capacity to defend yourself;
Walking from hotel to hotel is good for your health. But they probably were driven back and forth in giant convoys.

Can you negotiate for the release of children who are in prisons even if they have to go to another Country until a certain age and return back home
What is interesting is the role of Qatar in such things. It's so good at smelling money and opportunity that it's always available in such issues. And sometimes do some perfect service for flattering the Islamic Republic, like in the World Cup 2022 that acted as a proxy to morality police in Iran, harassing every single individual with a sign of opposition to the Islamic Republic
Iran helped us when our neighbors boycotted us even from using their Airspace or marine routes. We dont like to mix politics with trade or sport. We help Iran in return even that our policy dont overlap but Iran is a good, reliable and important neighbor.
@Assoma muhamed First, Iran didn't help you, the Islamic Republic regime helped Qatar government; autocrats help each other sometimes. By the way, in Iran we have still a few people who support the authoritarian regime, as you do in Qatar. Second, if your government is as cool as you depict, why it was too annoyed just by some t-shirts worn by a few at that time? We have already experienced much by the Islamic Republic, so don't play too innocent and light-hearted dear!
"like in the World Cup 2022 that acted as a proxy to morality police in Iran, harassing every single individual with a sign of opposition to the Islamic Republic"
Did US say something about that ?
Yes, your political problems to address on your brothels, not on other countries soil.
What's the role of Qatar in this negotiation, of US prisoner swap.....landing in Doha, Qatar, enroute to the US.
❤ America did not abandon its citizens! ❤
Except the Americans in Afghanistan. But why ruin a good moment like this with mention of a complete failure of a retreat. No I didn't mean retreat... no I guess since I can't think of a better word for it I did mean retreat after all.
@Matthew Smith I agree, the retreat from Afghanistan was indeed a low and emboldened the enemies of the US.
What if these folks weren’t hostages at all, but negotiators on behalf of America sent to look like hostages so it doesn’t look like America gave Iran money for nothing.
Some were arrested for 5 yrs
Pay attention
See
Theoretically possible, but about as likely as you being a collection of amoebas pretending to be a human.
Oh .. US forces other countries to stop all businesses with them but 😂
Shame that all the in innocent hundreds who were held and tortured in Afghanistan/Bagram, Iraq/Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo were not afforded due process and kept locked up for 20 years...Some still locked up...and then the US just releases them secretly to a third country with no recourse for justice... democracy and justice is beautiful 🤷🤷🤦♂️
*Iran🇮🇷 have islands disputes with UAE.*
make border agreement & keep peace!
More important is the Durrah Field dispute with Kuwait-Saudi
U a robot or what... the same comment everywhere 😂
The next island is Bahrain now go sit in the corner and cry momy
Long live Iran...
From the look of things, the Americans want this deal more than the Iranians, otherwise it wouldn't have have happened. So all talk about the two sides did not meet face to face nonsense means nothing. They are the junior partners in the deal.
It is good news for the world folks
Good job.
Well dane Iran
Narrator needed more facts at hand
Dis country called USA never stop to amazed me,,, Dey never joke with deir citizens abroad,, Unlike my country
What about the Iranian coz even USA got some Iranians as bragging chip so where did Iranian land
Two decided to stay in US another will go to a third country and only two would prefer Iran😮
@Adex gure So they prefer the USA to Iran? Wow
Today Iran has so much power
What did they do ?
Iran released US prisoners
Iran Is not the problem .
Thank you IRAN
Wow impressive
God bless Iran,glory to Iran in jesus mighty Name amen,the Cause and foundations of the prisoners swap is Italy and France Paris, America Napolitano,Napoli,Taranto,Torino,sardinia.Rome "::;;;;&&&
🎉❤
5 life 6billion $..mash Allah
It's Iran money basically the deal is 5 vs 5 exchange
Remain $ 27 Billions of Iran, Return Iraq oil money $ 54 Billions too
@Jatt GFalse. It is in USD. Much better than Iran money, at the moment. I like Iran but it is a fact that the revolutionary guard has made some major missteps that resulted in this reality. I think they have become a liability for their country in their current form (much like the military and political "brass" in the USA) and should retire en masse at the higher levels (much like in the USA).
Happy ending.
If we only knew the truth
It's coincided at a time Iranian president is in US maybe they wana talk
Even day of judgement in only God hands only God know time is fix but only God know no more war
Iran's prisons are equal to 3-star hotels in America, all prisoners in Iran have the best conditions in all respects. It is no different from 3-star hotels in America, America and its allies and their voices of human rights are very loud, their degrees and democracy... only their voices are loud... and in America, Canada, Europe and the most inhumane regime in the world is the Zionist regime of Israel , and all western countries have very, very terrible cases in history and that garden they say they built from the crimes and looting of other countries and in Africa until today they have been committing crimes and looting and looting the oil of Syria and Iraq and the natural resources of Afghanistan for twenty years. looting and massacring more than two million people in West Asia.. and think of any crime and you don't even think about it. They are guilty of ridiculous crimes and everything they accuse Iran of. They themselves are geniuses and masters in it. ISIS was created by America, the biggest terrorist in the world and supports the thesis of terrorists in the world and criminals... History You have studied 300 to 400 years of the westerners, only crime and killing and massacre, looting, and any crime... the right will win... and the westerners and their allies will pay for their countless crimes. ... Iran is right, light will win over darkness.....
Swaps is ok 👌🏽
America must paid compensation for the 350 civilian innocent pilgrimage downed their Airplane by A direct missile...in proud day light...The same payment, Qadafi paid...
Also, Iranian Nuke, is out of question... Iran, now are in Brics group and possibly will fote a severe punishment America shut test sanctions of all kind
Down with criminals
6 billion ?!! What about the People in Maui .
The money was not from the US. It was money from S. Korea for oil, before the sanctions.
What about those people? Thank fully those Iranians got their funds and those Americans are free ‐- argument done!

But why some freed iranian prisoners refuse to return to iran...but wanna stay in the US?😊. Home sweet home unless you are from Iran.:)
Haha iran super power fanish America 😂😂😂😂
If money belong to Iranian why America froze this money
In what part of the US Were those Americans Born in ?
You're right. They look the Iranian or Middle Eastern extractions.
They are Iranians with US citizenship
They'll get homesick again ! @Adex gure
Welldone Iran.. American goes to End
Thank u president biden. Been a long 8 yrs for these americans
lol .. "to humanitarian needs" .. I wonder if there are still naive enough people out there who read that and believe it.
American SPys indeed.
Can't show the CIA agents?
Shame on Qatar who supports criminal regime of Iran. Shame
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
. what a logic Iranian Fund Or Iranian money .
Why would three freed Iranians from US prison refuse to go back to Iran?😂😂😂...and prefer to stay in the US or somewhere. It tells you all you need to know about Iran...a banana republic country where its own citizens freed from a highly prisoner swap deal refuse to return. Freedom is better than sharia, it seems.😂
And yes can your Qataris negotiate to eliminate slavery on their neighbors too
Wat wer they doing there

They don’t look American.

@Anthony Lagunas 😂😂...people without Iranian names I guess...like Imran Khan.

Yes but you don’t ever talk about several Iranian who were holed in US prison and have been released , you always talking about how Iranian are brutal and unjust be fair and tell the truth.
