US Relocates Last of Uighur Detainees at Guantanamo
Government of Slovakia has taken them
The government of Slovakia has taken three more prisoners from Guantanamo, helping the U.S. get closer to its goal of shutting the prison on the base in Cuba.
U.S. military officials say the three prisoners are the last of nearly two dozen members of an ethnic Muslim group from China known as Uighurs who were detained at Guantanamo as suspected allies of the Taliban.
