Cuba accused the United States on Sunday of fabricating a new security threat after a report said U.S. intelligence agencies believe Havana has acquired hundreds of military drones and discussed possible attacks on American targets, including Guantánamo Bay and Key West, Florida.
Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez said Washington was building a "fraudulent case" to justify economic sanctions and possible military action against the island. His comments came after Axios reported, citing classified intelligence, that Cuba had obtained more than 300 military drones and that Cuban officials had discussed possible drone strikes against the U.S. naval base at Guantánamo Bay, U.S. militaryvessels,s and Key West, about 90 miles from Havana. Reuters said it could not immediately verify the Axios report.
