Cuban officials said a U.S.-registered speedboat violated their territorial waters, kicking off an armed confrontation with Cuban border guard troops in which four people on the vessel were killed.
Cuba's Ministry of the Interior posted a statement about the confrontation on Facebook.
U.S. officials did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
A commander of the Cuban border guard was injured and six people on the U.S.-registered vessel were also injured, the statement said.
The statement noted that the people on the U.S.-registered vessel had initiated the firefight.
"When a surface unit of the Border Guard Troops of the Ministry of the Interior, carrying five service members, approached the vessel for identification, the crew of the violating speedboat opened fire on the Cuban personnel, resulting in the injury of the commander of the Cuban vessel," the statement said.
Rep. Carlos Gimenez, R-Fla. called for an investigation into the incident.
"United States authorities must determine whether any of the victims were U.S. citizens or legal residents and establish exactly what occurred," Gimenez said in a statement.

>The Cuban government identified two of the boat passengers as Amijail Sánchez González and Leordan Enrique Cruz Gómez, who are wanted by Cuban authorities “based on their involvement in the promotion, planning, organization, financing, support or commission of actions carried out in the national territory or in other countries, in connection with acts of terrorism.”
>The government said it also had arrested Duniel Hernández Santos, adding that he was “sent from the United States to guarantee the reception of the armed infiltration, who at this time has confessed to his actions.”

>A preliminary investigation of the Florida-registered speedboat that opened fire on Cuban soldiers who were approaching the vessel on Wednesday shows it was laden with weapons for “an attempted infiltration for terrorist purposes,” Cuban Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Carlos F. de Cossio said.
>According to de Cossio, items seized from the boat include “assault rifles, sniper rifles, pistols, Molotov cocktails, and multiple pieces of assault equipment, including night vision equipment, bulletproof vests, assault bayonets, camouflage clothing, ammunition of various calibers, combat rations, communication equipment, and a large number of insignia from counterrevolutionary terrorist organizations.”
>Four of the 10 people aboard the boat were killed when the Cubans returned fire, the other six were injured and taken to medical facilities in Cuba.
>“This is not an isolated incident,” said de Cossio in a statement. “Cuba has been the victim of attacks and countless terrorist acts for more than 60 years, most of which have been organized, financed, and carried out from the territory of the United States.”
Yup, this an operation carried out by the US, which is why it's being swept under the rug by trump
