US Repatriates Detainees from Guantanamo Bay, Including Long-Held Kenyan Man
In a significant move, the US has repatriated three detainees from Guantanamo Bay, including a Kenyan man who had been held without charge for 17 years. The Pentagon also announced the transfer of two Malaysian prisoners who had pleaded guilty to war crimes, marking a notable reduction in the number of detainees at the facility. Following these transfers, 27 prisoners remain at Guantanamo Bay. Advocacy groups, including Amnesty International, have welcomed these developments while urging for the release of other detainees still incarcerated.
