CUBA

Hundreds of migrants flew into the Miami International Airport from Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Haiti—fearing the Biden admin's immigration program could end after a lawsuit.

The measures announced by President Biden earlier this month have led to a sharp drop in unlawful entries along the U.S.-Mexico border.

The number of Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan migrants attempting to cross the southwest border unlawfully has decreased drastically after announcement of an expanded parole program.

The Biden administration says U.S. authorities have seen a 97% decline in illegal border crossings by migrants from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela since Mexico began accepting those expelled under a public health order.

Ana Montes was described as being among "the most damaging spies" ever caught by the US.

Cuban migrants are still arriving by boat in the Florida Keys even as the Biden administration promises a crackdown.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection said in a tweet that at least 88 migrants were from Cuba.

The U.S. government says it will appeal a court ruling that would lift asylum restrictions that have become the cornerstone of border enforcement.

Ever-widening access to the internet is offering a new opportunity for Cubans looking for hard-to-obtain basic goods: online shopping.

There are many ways to categorize a hurricane. The storm’s central pressure is one way. The height of its storm surge is another. How much rain it drops is another. And, of course, the strength of its wind is another. But what causes a hurricane to strengthen or weaken? The answer is simple enough, but multifaceted.

Many hurricanes grow weaker as they approach land. But Hurricane Ian, like Hurricane Ida last year and a string of other recent hurricanes, did the opposite: Its top winds suddenly grew stronger as the storm neared Cuba, jumping from 65 miles (105 kilometers) per hour to 100 mph in less than a day. Meteorologists call that kind of dramatic shift “rapid intensification” -- and say that climate change appears to be making it more common.
