Frequently asked questions
What happened with the Florida speedboat in Cuba?
A Florida-registered speedboat (FL7726SH) was intercepted in Cuban territorial waters near Cayo Falcones, Villa Clara. When approached by Cuban border guards, the crew opened fire. Cuba returned fire, resulting in 4 dead and 6 wounded aboard the speedboat.
Where did the incident take place?
One nautical mile northeast of the El Pino channel, near Cayo Falcones in Cuba's Villa Clara province, about 200 km east of Havana on the island's north coast.
Who were the people on the Florida boat?
Cuban authorities have not revealed the identities of those killed or wounded. Florida's Attorney General and Congressman Carlos Gimenez have demanded a federal investigation to determine whether any were U.S. citizens or legal residents.
What is the political context of this incident?
The shooting happened amid the highest tensions in years between Washington and Havana, following Trump's tightened oil blockade and the capture of Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro in January, which deprived Cuba of a key ally and fuel supplier.
How many Cuban rafters were rescued this weekend?
At least 13 Cubans were rescued in two separate incidents: seven by the Mexican Navy off Banco Chinchorro, Quintana Roo, and six by the Royal Caribbean cruise ship Radiance of the Seas near Cuba.
