His release \u201cwas not part of an exchange, and no other concessions were provided,\u201d the department said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">U.S. officials told reporters that Russian President Vladimir Putin approved a humanitarian pardon following negotiations between the two governments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-x\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">BREAKING: Marine veteran Robert Gilman freed by Russia, where US says he was wrongfully detained for 1,666 days <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/mQVI2sotgs\">pic.twitter.com\/mQVI2sotgs<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Fox News (@FoxNews) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/FoxNews\/status\/2087206388434903340?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 11, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gilman departed Russia aboard a State Department aircraft accompanied by his mother. Four doctors were evaluating him during the flight, according to Reuters, and an official who spoke with him said he was walking and talking. He is expected to receive medical and psychological treatment at a military facility in Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Russian authorities arrested Gilman in Voronezh in January 2022 after accusing him of kicking a police officer while being removed from a train. His family disputes Russia\u2019s account, saying Gilman was ill and made accidental contact with the officer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Russian courts later convicted him of additional alleged assaults on prison and law-enforcement officials, eventually extending his sentence to 10 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gilman\u2019s family and advocates said his health deteriorated sharply during his imprisonment. They reported that he spent approximately 47 days in a \u201cdissociative stupor,\u201d suffered severe pneumonia and required a feeding tube while handcuffed to a hospital bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) welcomed Gilman\u2019s release but said it was long overdue, alleging that he had endured physical torture, forced medication and deliberate provocations in Russian custody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>This is a breaking news story.
