They were heading to the coast of Florida. That's more than the last five fiscal years combined.
MIAMI — The U.S. Coast Guard has stopped at sea more than 3,000 Cuban migrants fleeing deteriorating economic, safety and political conditions in the island nation who were heading to the coast of Florida since October — more than the last five fiscal years combined, according to the agency.
A Coast Guard crew spotted a “rustic vessel” at 9 p.m. Thursday 25 miles south of Key West. Two and a half hours later, the same crew detected another boat in similar conditions 30 miles south of Key West. “Migrating illegally in makeshift vessels, especially without life jackets or safety equipment, is incredibly dangerous,” Lt. Paul Puddington of Coast Guard’s District Seven said Sunday in a news release. “Please, for your own safety, don’t take to the sea.”
