The text details that as a result of the investigation carried out by the specialized bodies of the MININT, the citizen Ardenys García Álvarez was arrested. He illegally penetrated and entered Cuba with firearms and ammunition by sea, as well as other implicated persons residing in the national territory.

García Álvarez had immigrated to that northern country, illegally, in 2014.

According to the MININt’s note, the action was part of a new recruitment plan to carry out violent actions. The ministry recalled that in December 2023 the Cuban government published in the Official Gazette of the Republic the list of persons and entities who sponsor terrorism against Cuba.

Two days later, preliminary information was released on the neutralization of a new recruitment plan to carry out violent actions in our country, which was intended to be carried out by a Cuban citizen living in the United States, the text pointed out.

The Ministry of the Interior prevented the realization of the plans designed, directed, and financed, once again, by the United States. This has generated an investigative process focused on the facts and the persons involved.

This Monday, July 8, at the end of the Cuban Television National News Broadcast, a special program will be offered with the evidence that proves the terrorist plans and actions, as well as those principally involved.
