Also, a war monitoring group says an airstrike in Syria killed at least 15 people.

In the news wrap Wednesday, three detainees are on their way home to the U.S. after being held in North Korea. The Korean-Americans were freed ahead of a planned summit between Kim Jong Un and President Trump. Also, a war monitoring group says an airstrike in Syria killed at least 15 people. The targets were weaponry that likely belonged to Iran's Revolutionary Guard, the group said.
