US eyes drone threat from Cuba

The Trump administration is expected to unveil criminal charges against former Cuban leader Raúl Castro, marking a significant escalation in diplomatic pressure.

The indictment reportedly stems from a decades-old investigation into a 1996 plane attack, bolstered by recently surfaced audio recordings.

U.S. military surveillance flights off the Cuban coast have surged as officials monitor potential drone threats and energy disruptions.

The move follows President Trump's efforts to dismantle the previous administration's engagement policies with Havana.
