SPAIN-SYRIA-CONFLICT-MEDIA-KIDNAPPING

El Mundo correspondent Javier Espinosa is greeted by his son as he arrives at the military airbase in Torrejon de Ardoz, near Madrid, on March 30, 2014. Two Spanish journalists taken hostage in Syria by an Al-Qaeda-linked group walked free after six months in captivity and were heading back to Spain today, their friends and colleagues said. Espinosa and Vilanova were seized on September 16 as they tried to cross the Syrian border to Turkey, the latest of scores of journalists captured while covering Syria's civil war.
