Belize monitors students in Cuba amid crisis; weighs recall and faces U.S.-pressured medical agreement decisions.

Belize is monitoring its students in Cuba amid worsening conditions due to the island's crisis, including blackouts and food shortages, with Health Minister Bernard maintaining communication through a dedicated chat group. While no decision to recall students has been made, the government is assessing safety concerns.
