Guantanamo detainee Rida bin Saleh al-Yazidi has been repatriated to Tunisia, according to the US Department of Defense.
He was found eligible for transfer from the detention center after a “rigorous interagency review,” according to a press statement.
The Pentagon did not say whether Mr. Yazidi admitted any guilt.
Since 2002, Guantanamo Bay has been used to hold what the US describes as captured illegal combatants during the US “war on terror”.
The camp is part of a US naval base complex in southeastern Cuba.
Pentagon statement said 26 prisoners remain at Guantanamo, of which 14 are eligible for transfer.
