From the article:
Four people on a US-registered speedboat were shot and killed after being intercepted in Cuban waters, Cuba's government said.
In a statement, Cuba's interior ministry said that the speedboat's passengers opened fire on a coast guard vessel that approached them.
Six additional passengers were wounded in the incident, which took place near an island on Cuba's northern coast.
The identity of those on board the vessel or what it was doing in the area are unclear, with the Cuban government saying an investigation has been launched to "clarify" the event.
In statement posted on X via the Cuban Embassy in the US, the Interior Ministry said that the Florida-registered vessel - with the registration number FL7726SH - was detected near Cayo Falcones, in the country's central Villa Clara province on Wednesday morning.
When a Cuban boat carrying five members of the ministry's border guard approached the vessel for identification, "the crew of the violating speedboat opened fire" and wounded the Cuban commander, the statement said.
"As a consequence of the confrontation, as of the time of this report, four aggressors on the foreign vessel were killed and six injured," the statement added.
1,000"Early news reports in the United States indicated the speedboat was part of a flotilla of an undetermined number of boats. Updated intelligence now confirms just a single boat was attacked. The vessel attacked was not from the United States Coast Guard or Navy, which an American official added did not have any boats in the area of the shootings."
