Mar. 29 (UPI) -- Thirty-eight of 558 prisoners held at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base are not "enemy combatants" and will go free, a senior U.S. official said Tuesday.

Five of the 38 have already been released. The U.S. State Department is negotiating the return of 33 more prisoners with their home governments, said Navy Secretary Gordon England at a Pentagon press conference.
