The identities of those on board - including six others who were wounded - is unclear.

Cuba’s Interior Ministry has announced that four men on a US-registered speedboat were shot and killed after being intercepted in Cuban waters.

When a Cuban boat carrying five members of the ministry’s border guard approached the vessel for identification, “the crew of the violating speedboat opened fire” and wounded the Cuban commander, the statement said.

“As a consequence of the confrontation, as of the time of this report, four aggressors on the foreign vessel were killed and six injured,” the statement added.

Those injured were evacuated and given medical assistance.

    Cuba has accused 10 people aboard a US-registered speedboat it intercepted off its coast on Wednesday of planning “an infiltration with terrorist aims”.

    “So anyway, me 'n the boys figured we’d just take the boat out real quick over lunch, catch some rays, fish a little, coupla brewskis, maybe invade Cuba, you know, the usual.”

    America fucking LOVES pushing and pushing and pushing a countries boundaries, taking more, seeing what they can get away with, how much they can take. Then, when the soverign nation reacts, as any other country would/should “THEYRE KILLING AMERICAN CITIZENS!!!”. The flag is false but the terrorism is now justified
