Two lost catamarans carrying aid safely reach Cuba after Caribbean search
Two missing catamaran-style vessels have been found safe in the Caribbean after losing contact during their journey. The boats, carrying humanitarian aid and nine crew members each, were located 80 nautical miles northwest of Havana, Cuba.
The vessels set off from Isla Mujeres in Quintana Roo, Mexico, before contact was lost. The Mexican Navy launched a search operation and maintained radio communication with the crews throughout.
A Mexican Navy ship was dispatched to assist, but the United States later confirmed both vessels had arrived safely in Cuba. The mission aimed to deliver aid as the island faces ongoing shortages of electricity and fuel.
The crews and their humanitarian supplies reached Cuba without further incident. Authorities continue to monitor conditions in the region as shortages persist. The safe arrival follows coordinated efforts between Mexican and US officials.
