NEW YORK: Cuba says it has killed four persons on a mystery US speedboat in a shootout in its waters, cranking up the already high level of tension between Washington and Havana, with US President Donald Trump declaring that country an “extraordinary threat”.
“We’re going to find out exactly what happened here and then we’ll respond accordingly, ” US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on the Wednesday incident.
"It is highly unusual to see shootouts on the open sea like that, " he said. "It’s not something that happens every day. It’s something, frankly, that hasn’t happened with Cuba in a very long time".
