It had a devastating impact in the province of Holguin, but the hardest hit province was Guantanamo, where a US naval base is usurping part of our territory.

The international community will surely witness the almost unanimous condemnation of this silent genocide by an empire that seeks to subdue those who inhabit the Island.
