YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The American soldier who sprinted into North Korea across the heavily fortified border between the Koreas two months ago arrived back in the US early Thursday, video appeared to show.

Pvt. Travis King’s release was secured with the help of ally Sweden and rival China, the White House said Wednesday.

North Korea abruptly announced earlier that day that it would expel the soldier.

While officials have said King is in good health and the immediate focus will be on caring for him and reintegrating him into US society, his troubles are likely far from over.

King, who had served in South Korea, ran into the North while on a civilian tour of a border village on July 18, becoming the first American confirmed to be detained in the iso in nearly five years.
