A ship carrying humanitarian aid from Mexico and Uruguay docked in Havana, bringing food and hygiene products to Cuba as the island confronts a worsening economic and energy crisis tied to fuel shortages, aging infrastructure, and renewed U.S. pressure on countries that supply it with oil.
The vessel, identified as the Asian Katra, arrived in Havana Bay with 1,700 tons of grains, powdered milk, personal hygiene items, and other basic supplies, according to the Associated Press.
