By April 7, 2007 the Saudi government reported that twenty-three of those individuals had been killed or captured.
It listed 85 individuals, 83 of whom were Saudis, and two were from Yemen

Carol Rosenberg, reporting in the Miami Herald, wrote that six of the men on the new most wanted list were former Guantanamo captives.

They reported one of the wanted men was 18, 34 of the men were between 20 and 30, and the remaining 12 were between 30 and 40.
