Venezuela on Saturday freed seven jailed Americans, including five oil executives, in exchange for Washington's release of two relatives of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, U.S. officials said.
The swap included executives of Citgo Petroleum held for years, in addition to U.S. Marine veteran Matthew Heath and another American citizen named Osman Khan, the officials said. They were exchanged for two of Maduro's wife's nephews, who had been convicted on drug charges, the officials said.
