HAVANA (AP) — Two sailboats that went missing carrying humanitarian aid from southern #Mexico to #Cuba landed in Havana on Saturday afternoon hours after Mexico’s navy said it had located the boats days after they went incommunicado because of bad weather.
The vessels carrying at least eight people departed from Isla Mujeres in southern Mexico on March 20 and then lost contact, fueling concern in Mexico, Cuba and beyond.
In a post on X, the navy said an aircraft spotted the boats 80 nautical miles northwest of Havana. Upon arriving to the island, the coordinator of the sailing convoy said bad weather was responsible for the delay because the boats had to take a longer route and the sailors were “never in any serious danger.”
