A Florida-registered speedboat invaded Cuban waters, killing four and injuring six, sparking U.S.-Cuba tensions.

Cuba said a Florida-registered speedboat entered its territorial waters near Cayo Falcones and opened fire on military personnel, killing four and injuring six, including a Cuban officer. The Cuban Interior Ministry claimed that the vessel was carrying armed individuals, possibly Cuban nationals living in the United States, who were accused of attempting terrorism. The U.S. The government confirmed that it is monitoring the situation, with Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio being briefed, but no official statement has been released. Florida officials launched an investigation and criticized Cuba's account, while some lawmakers called for action against the Cuban regime. The incident represents a rare use of lethal force in maritime encounters between the United States and Cuba during a time of high regional tension.
