Since July 31, 2009, Iran has detained three Americans who reportedly were hiking in nearby Kurdistan Iraq, in a mountainous scenic area where the Ahmed Awa waterfall is located.
The three detainees’ families have created a Web site — FreeTheHikers.org — to implore for their diplomatic release and to post updates about them as information comes in. The families have not had access to the three during their detainment. The U.S. has no embassy or official diplomatic ties in Iran.
The three Americans are journalist Shane Bauer, English teacher Sarah Shourd, and environmentalist and international teaching fellow Josh Fattal.
U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has called for Iran to release the three detainees.
The Swiss government, which has diplomatic relations with Iran, has been acting on behalf of the U.S. State Department to gain access and information about the three Americans.
Visit FreeTheHikers.org to learn more about Shane, Josh and Sarah.
The families have created a facebook group, too, to appeal for their quick release.
For Twitter users, the tag is #ssj.

“France urges caution over hostages video in Afghanistan”
AFP/Paris
SNIPPET: “The French government yesterday asked media outlets to exercise discretion in their use of a video of French television reporters pleading for their release after being kidnapped in Afghanistan.
Agence France-Presse (AFP) obtained the video, apparently taken three weeks ago, but decided not to publicise it because the agency believed it might compromise the chances of the France 3 television reporters being released.”
SNIPPET: “The journalists went missing along with three Afghan colleagues on December 30, in the eastern Afghan province of Kapisa. Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner said last Monday that indirect negotiations had started with the kidnappers.”
