Indictment of former Cuban president includes 5 fighter jet pilots involved in 1996 plane downings - AP News
Overview
U.S. federal authorities have indicted former Cuban president Raúl Castro and five fighter pilots over the 1996 downing of small civilian planes flown by Miami-based exiles. The charges bring a decades-old case into active criminal prosecution and follow earlier reporting that the Justice Department had been preparing charges. The indictment raises diplomatic and legal risks for Cuba and for third parties that engage with targeted individuals and could be paired with sanctions or other enforcement actions.
