Mexican Aid Boats Bound for Cuba Found Safe After Search Operation

Two Mexican aid boats that went missing while en route to Cuba have been successfully located 80 nautical miles from Havana. The boats, part of the Our America Convoy, were delivering essential humanitarian aid amid Cuba's ongoing economic crisis, exacerbated by recent U.S. oil supply restrictions.

The boats had departed from Isla Mujeres a week prior and were expected to arrive in Havana between March 27 and 28. This initiative is part of a larger effort to provide critical support to the Cuban people during a time of severe power outages and shortages.
