‘A violating speedboat was detected within Cuban territorial waters. The vessel was registered in Florida, the United States.

When the Coast Guard approached the vessel for identification, the crew of the speedboat opened fire on our personnel, resulting in the injury of the commander of the Cuban vessel.

As a consequence of the confrontation, four aggressors on the U.S.-registered foreign vessel were killed and six were injured.

Cuba reaffirms its determination to protect its territorial waters, based on the principle that national defense is a fundamental pillar of the Cuban State.’
