In a first since President Biden took office, the Biden administration has transferred a detainee at the U.S. military prison in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, to Morocco, signaling a renewed effort to shrink the highly controversial prison s population â and possibly close it entirely.
The transferred prisoner, 56-year-old Moroccan citizen Abdul Latif Nasser, had been cleared for release by a parole-like board in 2016, but was held at Gitmo for another five years. In total, he spent 19 years at Guantánamo without being charged, making him one of Gitmo s so-called forever prisoners subject to indefinite detention.

Kabul, Jul 12 (EFE).- Responsibility for the few remaining American troops in Afghanistan was transferred on Monday to the head of the Florida-based United States Central Command, a move that marks the symbolic end to a two-decade war in that Asian country.
US Army Gen. Scott Miller, who had led US and NATO forces in Afghanistan since 2018, stepped down and transferred control to Marine Corps Gen. Kenneth McKenzie.
“The people of Afghanistan will be in my heart and on my mind for the rest of my life,” Miller told the media in Kabul at an official ceremony. “Our job now is not to forget” those who made sacrifices, he added.
