[NYTimes] The Department of Defense announced on Sunday that it had transferred five lower-level Yemeni detainees from the GuantĂĄnamo Bay prison in Cuba to the United Arab Emirates. The United States had held each for nearly 14 years as wartime prisoners, and none had been charged with a crime.The transfers reduced the detainee population at the prison to 107. As many as 17 other proposed transfers of lower-level detainees are in the bureaucratic pipeline, an official familiar with internal deliberations said.
The resettlement of the Yemeni detainees was the first of its kind to the United Arab Emirates, which had previously taken in just one former GuantĂĄnamo detainee, in 2008 ‐ its own citizen.
