Venezuela sends fourth aid ship to Cuba

Venezuela has sent a fourth ship carrying 27 containers of humanitarian aid to Cuba to offset the extensive damage from Hurricane Melissa at the end of last October.

On December 10, from Caracas, Venezuela dispatched a new vessel with humanitarian aid for Cuba. This marks the fourth such shipment, comprising 27 containers aimed at addressing the impacts of Hurricane Melissa, which struck late last October. The hurricane inflicted substantial damage across the island, and this aid intends to aid recovery efforts. Prensa Latina covered the sending as an act of solidarity between allied countries. Specific contents of the aid are not detailed, but it targets compensation for material losses.

The Mexican government dispatched 814 tons of provisions to Cuba on Sunday aboard two Navy ships from Veracruz, in response to the island's severe energy crisis triggered by U.S. sanctions. The aid includes basic foodstuffs and hygiene items, as Cuba warns its airlines will run out of aviation fuel this Monday. President Claudia Sheinbaum reaffirmed Mexico's solidarity with Cuba.

Cuba has accepted a donation of humanitarian aid from the United States, channeled through the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, to support recovery efforts following Hurricane Melissa's passage in October 2025. However, the Cuban government criticizes the lack of official communication from Washington and warns against the political exploitation of the assistance. The aid will reach victims without conditions, as part of broader recovery initiatives on the island.

The oil tanker Ocean Mariner arrived in Havana Bay with 86,000 barrels of fuel sent by Mexico to ease blackouts on the island. The vessel, which departed from Pemex's Pajaritos complex last month, began unloading at the Ñico López refinery this Saturday. This shipment comes amid Cuba's energy crisis, worsened by reduced supplies from Venezuela.

Mexico's state oil company Pemex has canceled a crude oil shipment to Cuba scheduled for late January 2026, as the US escalates efforts to cut off fuel supplies to the island following its January 3 capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro. The decision heightens Cuba's energy crisis, with the country relying heavily on Mexican imports amid chronic blackouts and isolation.
