Cuba Releases Salvadoran Man Convicted for 1997 Hotel Bombings Amid Ongoing Calls for Justice

Credited from: APNEWS

  • Cuba has released Raúl Ernesto Cruz León, a Salvadoran man who served a 30-year sentence for his involvement in 1997 hotel bombings in Havana.
  • The bombings targeted hotels and bars, aimed at destabilizing Cuba's tourism industry during Fidel Castro's regime.
  • Cruz León had initially faced a death sentence, later reduced; he claimed to be a mere soldier in a conflict he did not belong to.
  • The Cuban government continues to call for justice against the masterminds of the attacks, who allegedly live freely in the United States.
  • Officials have not disclosed Cruz León's whereabouts following his release, and Cubadebate criticized the U.S. for its designation of Cuba as a state that sponsors terrorism.
