Gitmo Clock 2026 photos

This page features photos of campaigners and supporters across the U.S. and around the world calling for the closure of the prison at Guantánamo Bay in 2026 via posters marking every 100 days of Guantánamo’s existence (and the number of days on the anniversary of its opening), as posted on our Gitmo Clock website, which shows in real time how long Guantánamo has been open.

January 11, 2026 marked the shameful and unforgivable 24th anniversary of the opening of the prison, when it had been open for 8,767 days, and further posters will be made available throughout the year marking 8,800 days on February 13, 8,900 days on May 24, 9,000 days on September 1 and 9,100 days on December 10, with January 11, 2027 marking 9,132 days.

John has always been a staunch opponent of Guantánamo, and ten years ago helped secure the release of Shaker Aamer, the last British resident in the prison, as the head of the APPG (All-Party Parliamentary Group) calling for his freedom. He is currently a member of the APPG for the Closure of the Guantánamo Bay Detention Facility, established in 2023.

Close Guantánamo co-founder Andy Worthington calls on Donald Trump to close Guantánamo on January 11, 2026, the 24th anniversary of the opening of the prison. Andy says, "I know Trump doesn't care that this abominable facility is still open, but it is imperative that those of us who care continue to call for its closure. It is, and always has been, a legal, moral and ethical abomination."
