Washington — The collapse of Bashar al-Assad's regime in Syria has raised hopes that more information could come to light on the whereabouts of journalist Austin Tice, who is believed to still be alive more than 12 years after his kidnapping.
After a rebel offensive brought an end to the 50-year rule of the Assad family on Sunday, President Biden expressed optimism that Tice could be returned to the U.S.
"We think we can get him back, but we have no direct evidence of that yet," Mr. Biden said at the White House Sunday. "We have to identify where he is."
