The United States has confirmed the resettlement of 11 Yemeni detainees from Guantanamo Bay to Oman, reducing the prisoner population to just 15 individuals, a significant step in the long-term goal of closing the facility.
The Pentagon has expressed gratitude towards Oman and other partners for their cooperation in facilitating the transfer and supporting efforts to responsibly reduce the detainee population at Guantanamo, which has faced international scrutiny for human rights violations.
Guantanamo Bay has been a controversial detention center since its inception post-9/11, symbolizing the ongoing debate over human rights issues related to indefinite detention and interrogation techniques that many claim violate international law.
