The Cubans Yosdavy Hernandez Ozuna and Jose Luis Hernandez, who wore several days reported missing in Mexico, they appeared safe and sound.

Both men had their CBP One appointment scheduled to travel to the United States for Friday, February 16 at 6:00 am, but they never arrived.

Event reporter Niover Licea revealed on his Instagram account that while they were moving to the northern border they were detained by a military checkpoint in Hermosillo, capital of the state of Sonora.

"They are in perfect health. At this moment, they are on their way to the US border," he reported on Tuesday.

"Fortunately, everything will be resolved with them and soon they will be with their families reunited here in the United States," he added.

Last week, Yosdavy Hernández's mother sent journalist Mario J. Pentón a video to be broadcast on the Internet, hoping that someone would give her some information about her son.

According to the distraught elderly woman, Yosdavy and her friend José Luis left for the Hermosillo airport and then took a taxi to a hotel located near the border of the city of Nogales.

"They left the airport to take the taxi at 11 in the morning and we already lost communication with them," the woman said.

Yosdavy left for Mexico last September 19 and a little more than three months ago he applied for the CBP One appointment.

"I ask you to please help me, I am a desperate mother looking for my son, who has a two-month-old baby who needs her father and I, her mother, am going crazy," she pleaded.
