More than 10,000 detainees released in Iraq
The U.S. military said Saturday it has released more than 10,000 detainees in Iraq so far this year -- more than in all of 2007 -- as it continues to try phase out its running of Iraqi prisons.

The military said about 21,000 people remained in custody, and it is currently releasing about 45 detainees and detaining 30 a day.
