Cuba Calls U.S. Blockade Genocidal | Jamaica News

Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel has unleashed a fiery rebuke against the U.S., calling its escalating sanctions and oil blockade a “genocidal policy” designed to overthrow his government and install a regime serving Washington’s interests. With Venezuela’s Maduro gone — Cuba’s key oil supplier — the island is reeling: tourism collapsed, foreign investment fled, and foreign currency plummeted. The U.S. accuses Cuba of being a security threat and a rights violator, especially for its ties to Russia and China — and just last week, new sanctions targeted Cuba’s vital overseas medical missions. Speaking at a revolutionary anniversary, Diaz-Canel framed the embargo as a weapon of war causing death and social chaos, while urging Cubans to unite amid crippling energy shortages and daily blackouts. Despite mounting pressure and public discontent, the Cuban government stands firm — rejecting political reform and vowing to resist any military intervention.

A Couture Love Story in Trinidad | Jamaica News

A couture masterpiece and a love story born in lockdowns, Alexandra Nicole Elias and Michael Andrew Gabriel’s June 27, 2026 wedding was a regal fashion event.

Hodge Anchors West Indies to 194 | Jamaica News

Kavem Hodge’s gritty 83 not out steered the West Indies to 194 for 3 at stumps, thanks to a crucial 88-run fourth-wicket stand with Shai Hope, as Pakistan’s Mohammad Abbas claimed 2 for 44. Play was halted after 67 overs due to bad light, following a sluggish start and a rain-affected pitch. With Babar Azam back in charge for Pakistan and three new fast bowlers for the West Indies, both teams aim to climb the World Test Championship ladder. The match, held at the new Brian Lara Cricket Academy, began with a solemn minute’s silence honoring the late Sir Garfield Sobers.
