On 24 April 2011, WikiLeaks began publication of 779 prisoner dossiers from the United States’ Guantánamo bay prison facility in Cuba, in collaboration with media partners at The Washington Post, The McClatchy Company, El País, The Telegraph, Der Spiegel, Le Monde, La Reppublica, L’Espresso, and Aftonbladet, as well as author and journalist Andy Worthington. The New York Times, together with National Public Radio, and The Guardian are also publishing reportage based on WikiLeaks’ archive of Guantánamo Bay prisoner dossiers.

Each dossier contains basic data about the individual’s background, the circumstances of their detention, health condition, and judgments about their continued detention.
