  15. Two ships from Mexico carrying 80,000 barrels of fuel are en route to Cuba.

    The ships are the Ocean Mariner and the Eugenia Gas, both flying the Liberian flag. The Eugenia Gas is already sailing toward the port of Moa after loading at Pemex. The Ocean Mariner is still loading at Pemex before departing for Cuba five hours ago.

    These shipments aim to alleviate the severe #EnergyCrisis and massive blackouts affecting the island.

    These shipments come at a time of heightened tensions due to a recent naval blockade announced by the #UnitedStates against tankers transporting fuel to the island.

    The Mexican government has described these shipments as "humanitarian aid" amid a critical electricity emergency in Cuba.

  16. Cuba's Santiago City After the Storm

    [A video about #Cuba, hosted on the #PeerTube server #CuddlyTube, from the #news / #video collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    Hurricane Melissa tore through Santiago de Cuba with winds over 120 mph — uprooting trees and flooding neighborhood.

    Despite the destruction, no lives were lost thanks in part to Cuba’s Civil Defense system, which evacuated hundreds of thousands before landfall.
    Now, as the city begins to clean up, people are helping each other rebuild — even as the country faces deep economic challenges.

  17. What Cubans Think About Zohran Mamdani

    [A video about #Cuba, hosted on the #PeerTube server #CuddlyTube, from the #video collective #BellyOfTheBeast]

    #NewYorkCity has a new mayor-elect — Zohran Mamdani — and everyone's talking about it. But how do people thousands of miles away in Cuba see this political moment?

    We asked Cubans what they know about the election and how U.S. politics echo across the Caribbean.

    From cautious optimism to political skepticism, their answers reveal how closely the island follows its northern neighbor — and how much hope and doubt come with every #US election.

  21. A new organization against the U.S. blockade of Cuba is born in Jacksonville, Florida

    from #CubaDebate via #CubaNews

    Beyond beliefs and differences, but united by one goal: lifting the blockade, the Jacksonville branch of the "Hands Off Cuba" U.S. Committee was born, the first in Florida's most populous city.

    "The Jacksonville community is coming together to break the #blockade and support #Cuba, and far from being a one-time gathering, this event marked the beginning of a new chapter of solidarity with Cuba in the Deep South," Hakim Jihad, the group's coordinator, told Prensa Latina.

    During the inaugural meeting...a report was heard from the delegation that recently traveled to the May Day festivities in #Havana.

    "The energy in the room was electric, marked by curiosity, enthusiasm, and a deep desire to know the truth about Cuba beyond the lies of U.S. imperialist propaganda," he commented.
