Washington has spent weeks trying to strong-arm the world into voting against Cuba's annual resolution at the UN opposing the U.S. embargo. It didn't work. See more details about the vote below.

Meanwhile, as Hurricane Melissa tore through the island, Belly of the Beast journalist Liz Oliva Fernández has been on the ground in Santiago de Cuba reporting on the storm's impact and the resilience of those in its path.

I don't remember which hurricane it was that caused a lot of problems in the us a while ago, a real tragedy. Still cuba offered humanitarian help but was refused by washington.
