Reporters Without Borders hailed the news of the release of US hostage in Iraq, Jill Carroll, as a “huge relief”, saying that the campaign on her behalf had not been in vain.The international press freedom organisation also praised the “exemplary” courage and determination of her family.
“We thank all those throughout the world, particularly the major Arabic media, who campaigned for the release of this young journalist,” the organisation said.
But it added, “Our campaign will not be over until the three Iraqi reporters, Rim Zeid, Marwan Khazaal and Ali Abdullah Fayad have been released in their turn”.
