The Taliban on Tuesday released a US citizen who had been detained in Afghanistan for more than a year, with the UAE playing a role in his return.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio credited the UAE for its help in securing the release of researcher Dennis Coyle, 64, who was ⁠taken from his home in Kabul in January 2025 and held without charges in near-solitary confinement. He flew on an Emirati private jet into Abu Dhabi before transferring for a flight back to the US.

'The ministry conveyed its appreciation to the United States and Afghanistan for the confidence placed in the UAE and for selecting it as the venue for the release operation,' the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.

Rubio also thanked Qatar for its 'continued support and advocacy for Americans unjustly detained in Afghanistan'.
