US surveillance surge in Gulf of Mexico targets oil shipments to Cuba

US aircraft and drone deployments over the Gulf of Mexico are reportedly focused on tracking oil tankers bound for Cuba, according to a maritime intelligence firm, rather than drug interdiction. This suggests heightened US pressure on Cuban energy imports amid ongoing sanctions. The claim is based on a single source and remains unconfirmed by US officials.
