Despite a U.S. #oil #blockade and #sanctions, 1.4 million Cuban students returned to school this week after a long, sweltering summer.

Families rose before dawn, prepared uniforms and packed school bags while navigating hours-long blackouts and shortages.

We take you inside Cuba’s first day of school — and the extraordinary effort families and teachers make to keep children learning.

The #US State Department’s latest report on Cuba revives allegations against US #solidarity activists that were made by the FBI and CIA in the 1960s and 1970s — claims historian Teishan Latner says were never proven.

In this interview with BotB journalist Yohan Rodríguez, Latner discusses the history of US-Cuba solidarity, the #VenceremosBrigade, the #BlackPantherParty and growing pressure on people in the US who oppose Washington’s policy toward Cuba.

He also examines whether the report is helping lay the groundwork for military action against Cuba.

U.S. Rep. Carlos Giménez (R-FL) says Cuba’s healthcare system “sucks” and “doesn’t work,” pointing to hospitals without #medicine and deteriorating conditions.

But this criticism leaves out a major part of the story: the policies Giménez has championed are the reason why Cuba’s #hospitals are collapsing. #US #EconomicWarfare has restricted Cuba’s ability to obtain medicines, #medical equipment, fuel and other resources needed to keep its #healthcare system running.

#Rubio Promises Cuba a Better Future — in a Box

[weekly newsletter about #Cuba from the #BellyOfTheBeast #news collective. Their videos can be found at: https://peertube.world/c/cuba_botb_videos/videos]

The #Trump administration is touting a $100 million aid package for Cuba, most of which is being distributed by #CatholicChurch charities.

But the aid is a drop in the bucket compared to the damage caused by #US# sanctions and an #oil #blockade that has plunged the country into a humanitarian crisis.

In our latest video, Belly of the Beast journalist Yohan Rodríguez reports from Bejucal, a town on the outskirts of Havana, where residents welcomed the food kits but questioned the policies that made the aid necessary.

Video - Cuba Can’t Keep the Lights On. Rubio Says It’s a Superpower
https://peertube.world/w/fJgfR2tiGPiBjtpGBeAGo6

[a #video on #Peertube about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

In an interview with Lara Trump, U.S. Secretary of State #MarcoRubio called Cuba a “superpower” and a threat to the #UnitedStates. Lara Trump said Cuba is trying to wipe the U.S. from the face of the earth.

So how does an island struggling with blackouts, fuel shortages and a deep economic crisis pose an existential threat to the world’s most powerful country?

Journalist Yohan Rodríguez breaks down the farcical claims by #Trump and #Rubio, which are used to justify current #US policy.

In a town of 22,000 people, the Church delivered 380 boxes of aid. Those who received it expressed their gratitude. But there is a stark contradiction at the heart of the US aid effort: Washington is offering relief from a crisis its own policies have brought about.

The #US State Department just released a 100-page report accusing Cuba of influencing virtually every major progressive movement, organization, protest and activist over the last 65 years.

Amidst a hodgepodge of distorted history and sweeping, conspiratorial conclusions, the #Trump administration uses the report for two purposes: to justify repression at home and regime change in Cuba.

UNITED NATIONS, NEW YORK CITY, July 7, 2026 — In a diplomatic offensive aimed at challenging the #US economic war against #Cuba, Cuba’s foreign minister #BrunoRodríguezParilla requested a session of the #UNGeneralAssembly to re-open debate on ending the US blockade of the island. US secretary of state #MarcoRubio actively and aggressively opposed the proposal. But an overwhelming majority of #UN member states approved Cuba’s request to hold the debate. 136 voted in favor, 9 against, and 30 abstained. A win for Cuba! This is an eyewitness report on the debate that followed.

Electric tricycles have exploded across Cuba as the country faces extreme fuel shortages due to the #US-imposed #oil #blockade. But blackouts now last so long — 20 or more hours a day — there isn’t enough electricity to charge them.

So drivers are now installing #SolarPanels on top of their tricycles.

“As long as the sun is out, it’s charging the battery,” says Evanys Peréz. “Now we can travel up to 90 miles.”
