Concerns of Cuban Fathers as Sons are Recruited for Ukraine War

Cuban fathers express concern as their sons are recruited by an alleged criminal network to fight for the Russian army in Ukraine. The Cuban government has arrested 17 people, including organizers, recruiters, and volunteers, over alleged links to a trafficking network. Those found guilty could face life imprisonment or the death penalty. One father, Pedro Roberto Gamuza, has one son fighting in Ukraine and another detained for mercenary activities. Another father, Mario Velazquez, has had no word from his son who claimed to be heading to Ukraine after being tricked into working with the Russian army. The Cuban government denies any complicity with Russia in the alleged trafficking.
