Please join Amnesty International, World Can’t Wait, and human rights defenders around the globe for the monthly 1st Wednesday of the month Close Guant\u00e1namo Global Vigils calling on Biden to release the 16 men cleared for release and stop the ongoing Islamophobic human rights abuses: CLOSE GUANT\u00c1NAMO NOW!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

June is torture awareness month. Every year, human rights organizations like Amnesty International, Torture Abolition and Survivors, National Religious Campaign Against Torture and other groups recognize June as Torture Awareness Month. The Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman and Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CAT) entered into force on June 26, 1987, that\u2019s why June 26 is marked as the International Day in Support of Victims of Torture.

In October, 11 Yemeni men were set to be released and resettled in Oman. The transfers were suddenly halted after October 7th because of “political optics”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a reminder, 30 Muslim men are still languishing at Guant\u00e1namo, most without charge, none having received a fair trial. Many detainees, like Toffiq al-Bihani and Khalid Qasim were brutally tortured by the U.S. government. Of the eleven men who were about to be released in October, al-Bihani and Qasim though cleared for transfer for years, remain detained indefinitely at the unfathomably expensive forever prison.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
