The administration has begun to pull the U.S. visas of foreign officials in countries that pay the Cuban government for doctors and nurses.

For four decades, a U.S.-financed broadcaster provoked the ire of the communist government in Cuba. President Trump dismantled it in a matter of days.

Some school buildings are in gang-occupied territory or have become de facto shelters for those forced from their homes, leaving hundreds of thousands with no chance for formal learning.

The country’s security situation has deteriorated even further since Monday when at least three planes were shot at, forcing the closure of its main airport.

During the six-hour tour, the Kenyans were mostly ignored by people on the street and occasionally heckled; the vehicle was shot at once.

The trip by President William Ruto of Kenya came against a bleak backdrop in Haiti, where gangs operate with impunity and the Kenyan officers remain largely out of sight.
