Trumps wants to take down Cuba, but Russian military jets with unknown cargo keep landing near Havana

A U.S.-sanctioned Russian military-linked cargo jet landed at a Cuban military airfield near Havana. This immediately raised alarms because this flight pattern precisely mirrors activity seen right before the capture of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela. This comes close to President Trump wanting regime change.

This isn’t just a regular delivery, you’ve got to admit. The aircraft, an Ilyushin Il-76, is operated by Aviacon Zitotrans, a Russian state-linked airline that the U.S. has sanctioned. Flight data confirms the plane touched down at San Antonio de los Baños Airfield. Per Fox, this is a key Cuban military installation located about 30 miles south of Havana.
