Three newly freed Americans back on US soil after landmark prisoner exchange with Russia
The swap happened despite strained relations between Washington and Moscow, worsened by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
As the U.S. gears up for what may be its tightest election yet, the Trump vs. Harris contest has stirred unprecedented voter interest, with early turnout figures already setting records. Over 70 million Americans have cast their votes, marking historic levels of engagement. Polls show a razor-thin margin between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, with neither candidate leading by more than a single point. Both campaigns are focused on mobilising voters, with experts suggesting that this surge in early turnout could lead to delayed final results. The nation watches closely as voters' sentiments shape the final days before the ultimate decision.
