Havana, Cuba.- The “Nuestra América” ??(Our America) flotilla continues its voyage from Mexico bound for Cuba, transporting over 30 tons of humanitarian aid for the people of the Caribbean island, amidst a crisis exacerbated by economic restrictions imposed by the United States.

The vessel—also known as “Granma 2.0?—evokes the historic expedition that landed in 1956 and marked the beginning of the Cuban revolutionary process. On this occasion, the ship is carrying 32 people hailing from 11 different countries, according to the organizers.

The cargo includes 73 solar panels destined for health centers, as well as staple foods such as rice, beans, and cereals, along with medicines and hygiene products—all donations originating from various nations.

The organizers have expressed concern regarding security risks on the high seas, noting that during the administration of Donald Trump, more than 40 attacks against vessels were recorded in the Caribbean and the Pacific, amid accusations of links to terrorism and drug trafficking. “Our safety is directly linked to the visibility we maintain. We remember that Trump bombed ships right there in the Caribbean—and in the Pacific as well. And he knows no bounds when it comes to his malicious plans,” declared Brazilian activist Thiago Ávila, who participated in an aid flotilla bound for Gaza in 2025.

To ensure the mission’s protection, the flotilla is being escorted by a Mexican Navy vessel, which will accompany the ship to the edge of Cuban territorial waters.

This initiative joins the efforts of Mexico and several European Union nations, which in recent weeks have sent humanitarian aid to Cuba as a show of support in the face of escalating U.S. policy.

The flotilla is expected to arrive within the next few hours, following a 48-hour voyage, and represents a renewed gesture of international solidarity toward the island during a time of severe economic and energy crisis.
