The four New York Times journalists arrested in Libya will be released today, the newspaper reports.
In an interview Thursday with ABC News' Christiane Amanpour, Col. Moammar Gadhafi's son, Saif Gadhafi, said one of the journalists would be freed. But the Times said Libyan government officials later told the U.S. State Department that all four would be released.
“They entered the country illegally and when the army, when they liberated the city of Ajdabiya from the terrorists and they found her, they arrest her because you know, foreigners in this place,” Saif Gadhafi said, apparently referring to photographer Lynsey Addario.
