"Guantanamo Bay Detainees Released After 14 Years, Taliban Confirms"

Two Afghan prisoners who were held at Guantanamo Bay for 14 years have been released from house arrest in Oman, with the Taliban claiming credit for their release. The men, Abdul Zahir Saber and Abdul Karim, were transferred to Oman in 2017 after spending years in Guantanamo. They are set to return to Kabul, where an official welcome ceremony is being organized. Guantanamo Bay, established in 2002 to hold and interrogate those suspected of links to al-Qaida or the Taliban, has been the subject of controversy due to reports of detainee mistreatment.
