A deadly shootout off Cuba’s coast has triggered a major international controversy after a stolen Florida-registered speedboat carrying American citizens was intercepted by Cuban forces. Four people were killed and six injured during the violent confrontation. U.S. officials confirmed that at least one American citizen was among the dead, while others on board were U.S. residents and visa holders.
