This video examines escalating tensions between the United States and Cuba, where President Miguel Diaz-Canel warned that a US attack would trigger a 'blood bath' with incalculable consequences. Following US Treasury sanctions against Cuba's intelligence agency and top leaders, reports emerged that Cuba had acquired over 300 military drones from Russia and Iran, allegedly planning strikes on US targets including Guantanamo Bay, military vessels, and Florida. While Cuba's leader did not directly address the drone allegations, he emphasized Cuba's legitimate right to self-defense against military aggression, while rejecting the notion that such measures could justify war. The situation reflects broader geopolitical tensions, with Cuba facing increasing strain after the US cut off energy supplies following Venezuela's political crisis, resulting in severe fuel shortages and limited electricity availability.

US-Cuba Tensions: Did Cuba Plan Strike on US Naval Base? | WION NewsAdded:
Cuba's leader has warned of a blood bath in the event of an American attack. It follows US Treasury sanctions against Havana's main intelligence agency and top leaders as tension spiked between the two countries. Writing on X, President Miguel Diaz said that Eighth Canal stressed that Cuba poses no threat to the US or any other country, but warned that a US attack would trigger a blood bath with incalculable consequences. His comments came a day after US news site Axios reported that Havana have obtained over 300 military drones from Russia and Iran and is mulling using them against the US targets. Also, the report which quoted US intelligence officials said that Havana was considering drone strikes on the US base at Guantanamo Bay in Eastern Cuba, on US military vessels, and possibly even in the US state of Florida. Diaz Canal did not directly address Cuba's alleged stockpiling of attack drones, but said the island had the absolute and legitimate right to defend itself against a military onslaught. He, however, added that it cannot be used as an excuse to impose war on the Cubans.
We Cubans are very brave and we're not going to back down. If they come, they'll have to fight because Cuba will fight back. That's what I can tell you.
Cuba isn't going to let anyone take its country away, you understand? There are various reasons for this, but it wouldn't be right for the United States to invade Cuba, nor for Cuba to invade the United States.
Cuba has come under increasing strain since the United States cut off its energy supplies after arresting the president of its then ally Venezuela in January. In recent weeks, fuel has run out and electricity is often available for only an hour or two a day.
