MONTEVIDEO: Five of the six former Guantanamo inmates being resettled in Uruguay will likely move into a house in the capital Montevideo, according to the labor union providing the lodging. Five of them — three Syrians, a Palestinian and a Tunisian — will “probably” move into a house set up for them in Montevideo that resembles “any ordinary worker’s,” said Fernando Pereira of national labor union federation PIT-CNT. He said the sixth, 43-year-old Syrian national Jihad Diyab, will remain in hospital to recover from a hunger strike. AFP
