BBC's Johnston released in Gaza
 BBC correspondent Alan Johnston has been freed from kidnappers in Gaza after almost four months in captivity. Television pictures showed Mr Johnston, 45, leaving a building and entering a white car, accompanied by armed men. He said he was tired but in good health. During his time as a hostage, three videos were released featuring images of Mr Johnston or of his belongings. Calls were made for his release in rallies worldwide and in an online petition signed by some 200,000 people. Mr Johnston was handed over to officials of the Hamas administration, reports say.
