The Obama administration has transferred 15 prisoners out of an American naval base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
We're explaining why this is significant.
First, the facility. The U.S. operates it on land that is leased from Cuba since 1903. Starting in 2002, the detention camp at Guantanamo Bay has been used to house suspected terrorists that the U.S. captured from other countries, many during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Next, the controversy. Hundreds of prisoners have been held at Guantanamo or Gitmo over the years and there have been accusations that some of them were tortured or mistreated.
President Obama has said the facility is a symbol that's been used to recruit terrorists around the world. But though he's tried to bring Gitmo prisoners to the U.S. for trial, lawmakers from both major political parties have resisted that, saying the detainees are too dangerous to be held in U.S. civilian prisons, and some of the former Guantanamo prisoners who've been released have returned to terrorism.
These are some reasons why President Obama has been unable to close Guantanamo, though he's tried since he took office. It's not clear where the remaining prisoners would be sent. The president also needs but does not have congressional approval to close Gitmo. Currently, 61 prisoners remained in the facility.
