Two US citizens held in North Korea are on their way home after being freed by the secretive state, officials have confirmed.

Kenneth Bae and Matthew Miller were being accompanied by the US government's director of national intelligence James Clapper, his office said.

President Obama welcomed the pair's release, although officials said the timing was not related to his imminent trip to China, Myanmar and Australia.

Speaking at the White House, Mr Obama said: "I think it is a wonderful day for them and their families and obviously we are very grateful for their safe return."

Mr Bae had been detained in North Korea since November 2012, while Mr Miller, 24, had been held since April.
