RUSSIA HALTS GRAIN DEAL AFTER ‘MASSIVE’ BLACK SEA FLEET ATTACK

Guantanamo Bay’s oldest prisoner has been released to his home country, Pakistan, after almost two decades.

Saifullah Paracha, 75 years of was arrested two years after the 11 September 2001 attacks on the US and accused of being an al-Qaeda sympathiser.

Mr Paracha was suspected of financing the jihadist group, but maintained his innocence and was never charged.

The US military prison in Cuba once housed hundreds of suspected militants captured following the attacks.

The secretive US military prison has been used to hold what America describes as captured unlawful combatants during its “war on terror”.
