The Pentagon has repatriated one of the first Guantánamo Bay prisoners to Tunisia after more than two decades of incarceration without trial. Ridah bin Saleh al-Yazidi had been held at the notorious U.S. military prison in Cuba since it opened in 2002. He was abducted by Pakistani soldiers near the Afghan border in 2001 and accused of being an al-Qaeda fighter, but was never charged with a crime. Al-Yazidi was cleared for release more than a decade ago. Twenty-six prisoners remain at Guantánamo Bay, 16 years after Barack Obama pledged to close the prison in his first year as president.
