An American woman held in Iran since 2024 was allowed to leave the country, President Donald Trump and her US-based lawyer said Wednesday, reports CNN.

Trump said the woman, later identified by her lawyer as Dena Karari, had been wrongfully detained and was "now safely outside of Iran, and in good condition."

"The United States of America appreciates this gesture of Goodwill by Iran!" Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Her departure from the country comes as the US military continues to strike Iran following the collapse of the memorandum of understanding between the two countries.

Jared Genser, Karari's lawyer, called it a "minor miracle" that she was able to leave Iran in the middle of a war, but also because of her ailing health. Genser told CNN the 53-year-old Karari had suffered a massive heart attack last week, and there were significant concerns about her condition moving forward.

Trump did not provide additional details about the circumstances of her release. 

Genser said Karari was heading back to the United States and praised the Trump administration for their work to help get her home.

There are other Americans who remain detained in Iran, including two who have been designated as wrongfully detained: Reza Valizadeh and Kamran Hekmati. As of last month, the US government was tracking at least six Americans detained in Iran, a US official said.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
