Guantanamo Bay Naval Base
Guantanamo Bay Naval Base is a U.S. military installation located on Cuba's southeast coast. Established in the late 19th century, it has become known for its detention facility, where suspected terrorists have been held since 2002 following the September 11 attacks. The base is strategically important for U.S. military operations in the Caribbean and serves as a key logistical hub. The detention center has sparked significant controversy over human rights, legal rights, and the treatment of detainees, drawing international attention and criticism over the years.
