Now if you have the Cuban regime and the present US administration giving contradictory statements about this incident, I wouldn’t know who to believe.

Now if you have the Cuban regime and the present US administration giving contradictory statements about this incident, I wouldn’t know who to believe.
And in such a case I would revert to Occam’s razor. The simplest and most plausible explanation here is organized crime doing crime stuff and trying to shoot their way out, and losing.
I of course remain open to taking in new information.

Silly Cubans.
Speedboats at seat should be hit by missiles from UASes, not engaged with small arms.

I cannot conceive how anyone not up to mischief could somehow close to within a mile of Cuba.

I'm guessing that the Cubans wanted to wait until the last possible moment before firing in order to try and reduce as much as possible flak from the US. Hitting someone in a speedboat 10 miles out vs 3miles vs 1 mile might trigger different responses from the US. But with the current Circus who knows what they'll do/

Apparently all Cuban born, with US citizenship. 4 dead and 6 injured, so very likley people smugglers and most likley did not pay a "fee to look the other way" to the local commander.

Other than the fact that the dead are of Cuban ancestry, I take anything from the Cubans with a large bag of salt.
