Cuba has once again pointed a finger at the US over the prolonged delays in clarifying the fate of two doctors kidnapped in Madera in 2019 and suspected to have been in an area bombed by the US African Command (AFRICOM) last year.

Cuban Foreign Affairs Minister Bruno Rodriguez has, however, revealed that the efforts continue to clarify the situation of the two Cuban doctors, saying talks are still ongoing.

In a post on his official X page, Rodriguez noted that the country was marking six years since the two doctors were abducted and that their whereabouts were still a priority for the Cuban government. "Six years ago, Cuban doctors Assel and Landy were kidnapped in Kenya while on an internationalist mission.

Efforts to clarify the situation continue, with the ongoing attention and commitment of the highest level of the Party and the Government of Cuba," he wrote.
