AMERICAN schoolteacher Marc Fogel has been released from a Russian prison after being hit with trumped up charges.
Fogel, 63, was arrested at an airport in 2021 for the illegal possession of a small amount of medical cannabis and slapped with a 14-year sentence.
Fogel was freed from captivity after a meeting with President Donald Trump’s envoy in Moscow.
The US and Russia agreed for the history teacher’s release as part of an exchange with Russia.
The move was announced by White House special envoy Steve Witkoff who said they were heading back to the US with Fogel.
He is yet to confirm what Russia gained in return.
White House national security adviser Mike Waltz later announced in a statement: “Today, President Donald J. Trump and his Special Envoy Steve Witkoff are able to announce that Mr. Witkoff is leaving Russian airspace with Marc Fogel, an American who was detained by Russia.
“President Trump, Steve Witkoff and the president’s advisors negotiated an exchange that serves as a show of good faith from the Russians and a sign we are moving in the right direction to end the brutal and terrible war in Ukraine.”
Fogel was officially designated as “wrongfully detained” by the US late last year.
FREE sweet treats will be up for grabs across the UK to celebrate the lead-up to Valentine’s Day.
Pret A Manger will be giving away up to 10,000 cookies for to visitors who visit their stores from 3pm tomorrow (February 12).
In a gesture to “celebrate the season of love” the chain is offering the sweet treats, which normally sell for £3.60, for free. You don’t even need to be a paying customer to get one.
Customers can choose from a Dark Choc & Almond Butter Cookie or a Fruit, Oat and spelt Cookie by saying a secret phrase.
To get your freebie you just need to say the words ‘Cookie Crush’ at the till but beware, the offer is only available until stocks last.
Over 10,000 cookies are expected to be given away across Pret’s 500 stores with just two locations in Belfast, Donegall Square and Grand Central Station, not included in the giveaway.
The offer comes after actor Timothée Chalamet said the UK chain was “a top date spot” for romance.
Katherine Bagshawe, Pret A Manger’s UK Food & Coffee Director, said: “At Pret, we’ve always believed that great food brings people together, and what better way to celebrate love than with a freshly baked cookie?
“When we heard Timothée Chalamet mention Pret as a top date spot, we couldn’t resist marking the occasion with a little extra sweetness.
We hope our customers enjoy this special treat, whether they’re celebrating romance, friendship, or simply their love of cookies!”
The freebies are available from 3pm until close or until they’re all gone – and you’ll need to move quick to get your hands on one.
You can check the opening hours of your local store here.
The news comes after Pret today announced it would be keeping its £5 monthly loyalty scheme.
Put in place after the chain faced backlash for axing its free coffee deal in July last year, the new price has now become permanent since it was trialed from September.
Club Pret subscription saw customers pay £30 a month for 5 free barista-made coffees a day and 20% off all Pret A Manger food.
Changes to the deal, which cost loyal customers £360 a year, saw Pret announce it would be changing its scheme to £10 a month for 50% off coffee.
The 20% discount on the chain’s food menu also ended.
Club Pret members were shocked when the announcement was made in July, with one writing on X (formerly Twitter): “Have a word I will be cancelling as I think many others will be!!! Shame on you.”
Another added: “Pret changing their subscription to 50% off five drinks instead of it being free five drinks…. that just ruined my day.”
A third cried: “It’s a very sad day for coffee lovers.”
Pret said that given that the majority of its customers were not Club Pret subscribers, its priority was to “focus on better value for everyone”.
A reduced rate of £5 a month was going to be available only until the end of March 2025, but in a surprising twist Pret emailed its customers today to say the new lower monthly fee is here to stay.
“Our Club Pret monthly subscription fee will remain at just £5,” said Pret A Manger.
“You’ll continue to enjoy great savings on up to five Barista-made drinks per day,” with a link encouraging customers to see the chain’s new terms and conditions, here.
You can sign up to chain Leon’s Roast Rewards for £25 a month and, as with Pret’s original offer, get five barista-made drinks a day.
This works out at roughly 83p a day for five drinks – definitely not a bad deal if you’re buying even one coffee every day.
Under the terms of the off membership, you can only buy one drink every hour. So you can’t get a free drink for you and a pal at the same time.
As part of the scheme, you also get 20% off breakfast and the all-day food menu.
You can join Starbucks membership for free – a no-brainer if you’re regularly getting drinks there.
Customers get three stars for each partial £1 spent, then a free drink when they get 150 stars. It means spending around £50.
For a £2.95 small latte, it means buying 17 small lattes to get a free one.
Taking a leaf out of airline loyalty programs, Starbucks has a “gold level”.
This is reached once you have collected 450 stars – after spending £84.
It lets you claim perks like extra shots, dairy-free milk and whipped cream for free.
There is also a drink on the house for your birthday.
How it works:
Costa also runs a free loyalty scheme but also changed the terms last August
Customers must now buy an extra two coffees to get a free one at Costa, meaning you’ll get a freebie after buying ten, rather than eight.
As with Nero, you get an extra stamp for a reusable cup.
Stamps can be collected in any of the chain’s 2,800 coffee shops, as well as around 12,000 machines in petrol stations and convenience stores.

THE director of Britney Spears’s new biopic had already warned fans of a “long road ahead”.
Now insiders have said Jon M. Chu’s sentiment could be born out of the fact the singer has been struggling to make up her mind about what they will and won’t cover.
Universal won the bidding war to the rights for the film, which is based on Britney’s autobiography, called The Woman In Me.
But sources said Britney was “changing her mind like the wind” when it came down to the storyboarding.
An insider said: “Britney’s biopic is in the early stages of development and there have been a lot of ideas bandied around.
“As soon as it feels like they’re moving in one direction though, Britney will take it in another.
“Her manager is an executive producer on the film and is doing his best to put those ideas across, but it feels like it’s an ever-changing project at the moment with no clear direction.”
Bizarre first revealed plans for the biopic in October 2023, with Jon coming on board last year.
Jon said: “I want to do her justice and tell her story right. But we’ll see.
“We’re developing it now and it’s a long road ahead.
“She represents a generation of people growing up in the 2000s and late Nineties, and she has a story that deserves to be told properly.
“There’s a lot about us in it.
“In this initial conception, I think it’s a lot about how we treat people, young people, stars that we think we own, women, mothers.
“There’s a lot of things in there that I would love to explore.”
SABRINA CARPENTER looked like a real Hollywood pin-up as she posed in a satin gown and red lingerie with Marilyn Monroe-style blonde curls.
The Espresso singer was photographed for the March issue of Vogue, although isn’t always as glamorous.
She revealed: “I dress like a little boy for most of the day, if I’m trying to hide. They don’t even know it’s me and I’ll be standing right behind them.”
Sabrina also revealed she secretly flew to London last month to start work on the follow-up to her hit album Short N’ Sweet.
She said: “I start every year just trying to go away and write, because I feel like I have a lot to say at the end of a year. I’m just kind of tucked away right now.
“It’s half writing and half relaxation, if that’s something I can even accomplish.”

TELL us your dad has done a deal with Stella Artois, without telling us your dad has done a deal with Stella Artois . . .
Brooklyn Beckham posted no less than four Instagram stories of himself proudly drinking a bottle of the beer while watching the Super Bowl in the early hours of Monday.
The wannabe chef, who lives in the States with his wife Nicola Peltz, shared the posts as his dad David’s advert for the brand premiered on US telly.
He’s made a fortune from the team-up and it looks like he made Stella throw in a few crates for his son. Anything for a freebie, eh Brooklyn?
HE’S known as Certified Lover Boy – and now Drake is living up to his reputation.
The rapper is dropping a new record on Valentine’s Day, and spreading love, not hate, following his feud with Kendrick Lamar.
The Hotline Bling star waited until his rival’s Super Bowl half-time show finished before teasing fans on Instagram about the project, which he hopes will silence critics and remind people of his talent.
He has teamed up with Partynextdoor for the project and spoke about it on stage this week while performing in Australia.
Drake, above, said: “It’s called $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, but there’s some turned up songs for you on there too.
“And there’s some personal feelings on there for you.
“So hopefully whoever you’re with on Valentine’s Day, hopefully y’all can share that experience together.”
I’VE had to support boyfriends at work events in the past – and it can be a right bore.
But spare a thought for Adele. Clearly uninterested in basketball, she had photographers watching her every move while sitting through a game alongside fiancé Rich Paul, who is an agent to some of the sport’s top players.
She looked like she would have preferred to be at home watching trash TV than at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Monday, as the Los Angeles Lakers beat Utah Jazz.
The Someone Like You singer, who wore all black for the outing, is on a break from the music biz after her two-year Las Vegas residency ended in November.
Perhaps she will want to return to music sooner rather than later if it means she doesn’t have to go to the basketball.
SELENA GOMEZ has a big weekend on the cards, as she is dropping a new song hours before battling it out at the Baftas.
She is up for Best Supporting Actress for Netflix movie Emilia Perez and is expected to attend the event in London on Sunday.
And we’ve learned she will thank her fans for their support by releasing a secret single on Friday.
It will also be a first Valentine’s Day with her fiancé, producer Benny Blanco, since he popped the question last year.
Another reason to order in the champers.
OLLY ALEXANDER has a secret boyfriend after reconciling with a lover he split from a decade ago.
The singer, whose album Polari came out on Friday, talked about the romance in the March/April issue of Attitude magazine.
Sounding self-assured, he explained: “The reason for that is very simple. It’s because I got back together with my partner. We were together, like, ten years ago. We dated for a year and then broke up.
“We didn’t speak for a few years and ended up coming back together. So, this idea of returning to love was really on my mind.”
Olly, above, added: “And now we’re in a very domestic, grown-up relationship.
“I’ve never experienced that before. I felt like I had a bit of a different perspective to write from.”
