Summary

The incident occurred when a vessel registered in the state of Florida, USA (registration number FL7726SH), was detected one nautical mile off Falcones Cay, in the municipality of Corralillo. Upon approaching to identify the vessel, the occupants opened fire on the Cuban personnel.

As a result of this attack, the commander of the Cuban vessel was wounded. In response to the act of aggression, the Cuban troops acted in self-defense, fulfilling their duty to protect national sovereignty.

The confrontation resulted in four aggressors killed and six wounded on the foreign vessel. All were evacuated and have received appropriate medical assistance from Cuban authorities.
