The US Department of Defense has announced the repatriation of Guantanamo Bay inmate Ridah Bin Saleh al-Yazidi to Tunisia. Following a rigorous interagency review process, he was deemed eligible for transfer. The Pentagon did not clarify whether al-Yazidi has accepted any guilt for his detention. Since its inception in 2002, the Guantanamo Bay detention facility has been a controversial site for holding individuals labeled as unlawful combatants in the ongoing ‘war on terror.’
