(TS// //NF) KSM was transferred to DETENTION SITE   on    , 2005,[1] to DETENTION SITE BROWN on March  , 2006,[2] and to U.S. military detention at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, on September 5, 2006.[3] The CIA disseminated 831 intelligence reports from the interrogations of KSM over a period of 3.5 years. While KSM provided more intelligence reporting than any other CIA detainee (nearly 15 percent of all CIA detainee intelligence reporting), CIA records indicate that KSM also received the most intelligence requirements and attention from CIA interrogators, debriefers, analysts, and senior CIA leadership. Further, as noted, a significant amount of the disseminated intelligence reporting from KSM that the CIA identified as important threat reporting was later identified as fabricated.[4]

The CIA's enhanced interrogations during that time were primarily used at DETENTION SITE COBALT and DETENTION SITE BLUE.[5] Other interrogations using the CIA's enhanced interrogation techniques took place at a CIA   in Country  , at which at least one CIA detainee was submerged in a bathtub filled with ice water.[6]

(TS// //NF) In 2003, CIA interrogators sought and received approval to use the CIA's enhanced interrogation techniques against at least five detainees prior to their arrival at a CIA detention facility.[7] In two of those cases, CIA Headquarters approved the use of the CIA's
