The U.S. military's recent transfer of 11 Yemeni prisoners from Guantanamo Bay to Oman marks a significant step towards reducing the prison's historically low population.
The operation represents a culmination of efforts initiated by the Biden administration to close Guantanamo, reducing the prisoner count from 40 to just 15.
All released prisoners had been detained for two decades without charges, emphasizing the ongoing dialogue around detainee treatment and the future of Guantanamo Bay.
This transfer coincides with Khalid Shaikh Mohammed's planned guilty plea regarding the September 11 attacks, highlighting the timing of outcomes related to Guantanamo.
