US President Donald Trump has resorted to inflammatory rhetoric, stating that 'going in and destroying' is probably the only option left on the table. Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued a political ultimatum to Havana, demanding that Cuban leadership change its system or face a deepening blockade. Cuba responds by upholding its firm stance, as Fidel Castro did against past threats.

Fabiana del Valle, a 42-year-old Cuban artist, shares in her diary how the government's declaration of a 'state of war' has deepened daily hardships on the island. Following the capture of Venezuela's president early in 2026 and a Washington ultimatum, Cuba grapples with severe shortages of food, electricity, and medicine.
