Four people shot dead by Cuban border guards in a US-registered speedboat were Cuban nationals living in the United States, Cuba’s government said.
In a statement posted online, Cuba’s interior ministry said that the speedboat’s passengers – the four who were killed and six others who were wounded, also Cuban citizens – opened fire on a coast guard vessel that approached them near an island off the country’s northern coast on Wednesday.
The 10 individuals, some with previous criminal records, were armed and intended to "carry out an infiltration for terrorist purposes", the statement said.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the US was also investigating the "highly unusual" incident.
