Iran has freed Washington Post reporter Jason Rezaian, according to the country's Fars News Agency.
In exchange for the release of Rezaian and three other U.S.-Iranian prisoners, Iranian media initially reported the U.S. would release six Iranian-Americans imprisoned on sanctions-related charges. That number was later updated to seven U.S. prisoners. (Video via CNN)
Rezaian was arrested in Iran in 2014 and was eventually charged with espionage and other acts. The Washington Post denied the accusations.
