Florida authorities have issued an arrest warrant for Raul Castro, age 95, in connection with the 1996 downing of two civilian aircraft belonging to “Brothers to the Rescue.” This organization was known for aiding Cubans attempting to reach the US state by sea. The incident occurred on February 24, 1996, resulting in the deaths of those aboard the planes. The warrant seeks Castro’s arrest on murder charges related to the shooting. Details surrounding the case have resurfaced, prompting the Florida legal action. The event remains a sensitive topic concerning relations between Cuba and the US state of Florida. This development marks a significant step in seeking accountability for the incident decades after it occurred.
