American Travis Pete Timmerman, 29, Found in Syria After Assad's Fall; US Seeks His Return
Dec 13, 2024, 04:05 AM
The United States is working to bring home Travis Pete Timmerman, a 29-year-old American citizen from Missouri who was found on Thursday in Damascus, Syria, after being detained for seven months. Timmerman, who had been missing since he disappeared from Hungary in June, said he was imprisoned after crossing into Syria on foot on a Christian pilgrimage. He was among thousands released from the country's notorious prisons after rebels reached Damascus over the weekend, leading to the fall of President Bashar al-Assad's regime. Timmerman called his release a 'blessing.' US Secretary of State Antony Blinken confirmed efforts to repatriate Timmerman during meetings in Jordan discussing Syria's political transition. The US believes an individual seen in a video circulating online could be Timmerman.
