The FARC hasn’t liberated their captives, but two women of Spanish and Argentine citizenship being held hostage in Somalia were freed yesterday, according to Mexico’s El Universal. The women — Argentine nurse Pilar Bauzá Moreno and Spanish doctor Mercedes García (pictured) — were both employees of aid group Doctors without Borders and were working in Somalia when they were kidnapped on December 26th, 2007.

According to the Argentine government’s spokesperson, both women are “safe and sound” and currently on their way to Spain where they will be reunited with their families.
