American Pilgrim Freed After Months in Syrian Prison

• Travis Timmerman, a 29-year-old from Missouri, was found in a Syrian prison after being missing for several months. He traveled to Syria for spiritual purposes and was detained for seven months.
• Timmerman was freed by rebel fighters after the fall of Bashar al-Assad's regime. He described his prison experience as not too bad, though he faced restrictions on bathroom use.
• Initially mistaken for missing journalist Austin Tice, Timmerman was found barefoot in Dhiyabia and has since been in contact with his family. U.S. officials are now providing him support.
