The indictment was returned by a grand jury sitting in this district of Miami on April 23, 2026 and was unsealed today. For nearly 30 years, 30 years, the families of 4 murdered Americans have waited for justice. This is a story all too familiar. On February 24, 1996, two civilian aircraft operated by brothers to the rescue were shot down over international waters by military aircraft from Cuba. Four men were killed. Carlos Costa, Armando Alejandro, Jr., Mario de la Pena, and Pablo Morales. They were unarmed civilians and were flying humanitarian missions for the rescue and protection of people fleeing oppression across the Florida Straits. As alleged in the indictment, Raul Castro and five co-defendants participated in a conspiracy that ended with Cuban military aircraft firing missiles at those civilian planes and killing four Americans. Those are the allegations returned by a Federal grand jury. My message today is clear: the United States and President Trump does not and will not forget its citizens.
Send in the Nimitz, boys.
