TL;DR

The US Department of Justice has indicted former Cuban president Raúl Castro in connection with the 1996 downing of two Brothers to the Rescue planes; the charges have not yet been made public and appear to update an older case, with Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche set to outline details at a news conference, as Cuban-American lawmakers push for arrest and US-Cuba policy debates intensify amid Cuba’s economic crisis.
