The United States has said both men should be protected as prisoners of war under the Geneva Conventions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Huyhn\u2019s fiance, Joy Black, said his family was thrilled the Drueke was able to speak with his mother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are still hoping to get a similar communication from Andy,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Druke and Huynh&nbsp;didn\u2019t return to a meeting spot&nbsp;after their group came under heavy fire in the Kharkiv region of northeastern Ukraine near the Russian border on June 9. The two traveled separately to help Ukraine and became buddies there in part because of their shared Alabama background, relatives have said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The U.S. State Department said it was looking into reports that Russian or Russian-backed separatist forces in Ukraine had captured at least two American citizens. If confirmed, they would be the first Americans fighting for Ukraine known to have been captured since the war began Feb. 24.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Relatives say Lois
