( AP ) - Two South Korean women among 23 hostages kidnapped by Taliban militants in mid-July were handed over to officials from the international Red Cross on Monday.
The two women wept as they got out of a gray Toyota Corolla driven by an Afghan elder and into two waiting Red Cross SUVs.
The women, who the Taliban have said are ill, were part of a South Korean church group kidnapped by militants on July 19. Two of the hostages were killed.
