Mexico’s Navy Locates Two Missing Sailboats Carrying Aid to Cuba, Crew Safe

HAVANA, March ⁠28 (Reuters) – ⁠Two sailboats ⁠that went missing while ​carrying humanitarian aid ‌from Mexico to ‌Cuba have ⁠been ⁠located by the Mexican Navy and ​their crews are safe, a spokesman ​for the Nuestra America Convoy ⁠said ⁠on Saturday.

The ⁠two boats ​were part of the convoy, ​a ⁠broader grassroots aid effort seeking to deliver food, ⁠medicine, baby formula and other supplies to ⁠the Caribbean’s largest island, amid a U.S. blockade on shipments of oil and other supplies that has worsened ⁠power outages and led the state to ration services.
