I'm Aisha Roscoe and you're listening to the Sunday story. voice-verified
Under the regime of Bashar al-Assad, Syria had the highest number of journalists held hostage, according to a report from the non-profit organization Reporters Without Borders. voice-verified
And one of the most famous hostages in Syria is American journalist Austin Tice. voice-verified
Tice's disappearance in Syria fourteen years ago is considered one of the biggest unsolved missing person cases of our time. voice-verified
Despite the efforts of Austin Tice's family and world leaders calling for his release, little is known about what happened to him or where he might be. voice-verified
Over the last few years, BBC investigative journalists Josh Baker and Sarah Obedot have been following Tice's trail. voice-verified
During their investigation, they've discovered a complicated story of power struggles, secret documents, and people who do not want this story to be told. voice-verified
Today on The Sunday Story, we bring you the first episode of a new series from NPR's Embedded that details Josh and Sarah's years-long journey to find answers about what happened to Austin Tice. voice-verified
Many of the discoveries they make in the series have never been made public before, but they help paint a picture of how the journalist disappeared and where he may have been taken. voice-verified
Also, just a note, throughout the reporting and publishing of this investigation into an ongoing missing person case, Josh and his team have maintained regular contact with the Tice family and kept them informed of their discoveries along the way. voice-verified
Today, I'm handing the show over to Josh Baker and Sarah Obedot as they try to answer the question where's Austin Tice? voice-verified
Their story starts back in August of 2024. voice-verified
It was the first time Josh met Tice's mother. voice-verified
And joining me now is Deborah. voice-verified
But this kind of gave me a little bit of trepidation. voice-verified
Things are still voice-verified
Very new. voice-verified
That was BBC reporter Josh Baker. voice-verified
