A day earlier, CNN reported that the US military had increased the number of reconnaissance flights off the coast of Cuba since February. The TV channel cited data from the FlightRadar24 web service, according to which, since February 4, the US Air Force (Air Force) and the US Navy have carried out at least 25 reconnaissance flights using manned aircraft and drones.

Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla said on May 6 that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio's statements about the absence of an oil embargo against Cuba were untrue and at odds with the position of the White House.
