Since the morning of this Saturday, an unusual helicopter flyover over the city of Camagüey has been reported, with residents from various areas claiming they heard them "constantly," according to reported journalist José Luis Tan Estrada.

Meanwhile, in Havana, Cubanet captured a caravan of military vehicles moving "armed and at full speed."

These movements occur in a context of regional tension marked by recent statements from the United States regarding Cuba.

At a press conference following the U.S. attack on Venezuela, President Donald Trump referred to Cuba as "a failed nation" and remarked that it is a topic we will "end up discussing", in response to a question about whether he had any message for the Island.

In those same statements, Trump asserted that "that system has not been very good for Cuba."

He stated that “the people there have suffered for many years” and mentioned that Washington wants to “help the people in Cuba” and also “assist those who were forced to leave Cuba” and live in the United States.

The Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, expanded on the message and stated that the president's words must be taken "seriously."

In that segment, Rubio described Cuba as "a disaster" and stated that its economy is in "total collapse."

Rubio also linked Cuba to the protection of Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela, stating that "all the guards" protecting him and "his entire intelligence agency" were "full of Cubans," and concluded with a warning.

"If I lived in Havana and were in the government, I would be at least a little worried."
