Cuba rejects allegations from the United States
Cuba has strongly denied claims that it is preparing for military action against the United States. Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez said the accusations are false and part of a political narrative aimed at justifying pressure on Havana. He stressed that Cuba does not seek conflict and remains focused on defending its sovereignty.
Drone accusations raise regional tension
Reports cited by US media outlet Axios suggest that Cuba may have obtained around 300 drones and could be considering potential targets near the US. These claims also mention possible discussions involving strikes near military and coastal areas, including the US base at Guantanamo Bay and regions in Florida.
US officials referenced in the report also suggested possible foreign military involvement. Cuba dismissed these statements and accused Washington of spreading misinformation to build support for aggressive action.
Fuel shortages deepen crisis inside Cuba
Cuba is facing a severe fuel shortage that has disrupted daily life. The crisis has led to rolling power cuts across the country. Hospitals, water systems, transport services, and waste collection have all been affected.
Authorities in Havana say the situation has worsened due to long standing restrictions on oil supply access linked to policies from the United States. These constraints have placed additional pressure on energy imports and economic stability.
Diplomatic tensions continue between Havana and Washington
Relations between Cuba and the United States remain strained. Discussions between both sides have taken place in recent months, but no long term agreement has been reached. US political pressure has increased, while Cuban officials continue to call for dialogue without threats or intervention.
There are also references in the report to international involvement, including suggestions of foreign advisers in Havana. These claims have not been independently confirmed and remain part of ongoing political dispute.
Public hardship and growing unrest
The fuel shortage and power cuts have caused widespread disruption across Cuban society. Shortages of food and medicine have added to public frustration. In some areas, rare public protests have appeared as living conditions continue to deteriorate.
