SIX prisoners were injured in a clash with guards at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba but no US troops were hurt, the commander of the base said.
US military guards were lured into a dormlike room at a low-security wing of the detention centre in Cuba on Thursday evening by a detainee pretending to prepare to hang himself, said Navy Rear Admiral Harry Harris. The guards were pounced on by other detainees wielding broken light fixtures, fan blades and pieces of metal.
