US not taking Cuba's word on shooting that killed 4 aboard Florida-registered speedboat: Rubio

Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel said on Thursday the Caribbean country will defend itself against any "terrorist and mercenary aggression that seeks to undermine its sovereignty and national stability." His remarks on social media came after Havana said on Wednesday it had killed four people and wounded six others who sailed into Cuban waters aboard a Florida-registered speedboat on Wednesday and opened fire on a Cuban patrol. The Cuban government said the group was comprised of anti-government Cubans, some of whom were previously wanted for plotting attacks. The incident took place at a time of heightened tensions with the United States, which has blocked oil shipments to the island in a bid to pressure the Communist-run government. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the U.S. is gathering their own facts in the case, but did remark that "it is highly unusual to see shootouts in open sea."
