MIAMI, USA -- The crew of the US Coast Guard Cutter Charles David Jr. repatriated 15 Cuban migrants to Bahia de Cabañas, Cuba, on Tuesday.
These repatriations are a result of three separate migrant interdictions at sea within the last week in the south Florida Straits. In each instance, the Coast Guard helped secure the US border and prevented these perilous sea voyages from ending in tragedy.
"Safety of life at sea continues to be the Coast Guard's primary concern," said Capt. Mark Gordon, chief of enforcement for the Coast Guard 7th District. "The dangerous waters of the Florida Straits can be unforgiving for the unprepared on ill advised and illegal voyages. Immigration policies have not changed and we urge people not to take to the ocean in unseaworthy vessels. It is illegal and extremely dangerous."
Once aboard a Coast Guard cutter, all migrants receive food, water, shelter and basic medical attention.
Since October 1, at least 4,406 Cubans have attempted to illegally migrate to the US via the maritime environment compared to 4,473 in 2015. These statistics represent the total number of at-sea interdictions, landings and disruptions in the Florida Straits, the Caribbean and Atlantic.
