U.S. Transfers 3 Guantánamo Prisoners to Italy and Serbia

HeadlineJul 12, 2016

Seventy-six prisoners remain in the U.S. military prison at Guantánamo Bay, after the U.S. transferred three prisoners in the past 48 hours. Yemeni citizen Fayiz Ahmad Yahia Suleiman is being sent to Italy after being approved for transfer nearly six years ago. Yemeni national Mansur Ahmad Saad al-Dayfi and Tajik national Muhammadi Davlatov were both sent to Serbia. Twenty-seven more prisoners remaining at Guantánamo have already been approved for release. President Obama promised to close the prison at the beginning of his first term in office nearly eight years ago.
