The United States has transferred five Guantanamo Bay prisoners to Europe as part of efforts to empty and close the controversial jail at the U.S. military base in Cuba, officials said Thursday.

Three Yemeni prisoners were sent to Georgia, while a fourth Yemeni and a Tunisian were transferred to Slovakia, Pentagon spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Myles Caggins said.

They arrived by plane at around 1900 GMT.
