The repatriation of Cubans stranded in Haiti is ready and will begin when flight operations resume at Toussaint Louverture International Airport. This was confirmed by the Cuban Embassy in Haiti through X social media.

The fact is that according to the official release of the Cuban Embassy in Haiti, flights returning to the island will have two destinations. These will be Camaguey and Santiago de Cuba, while passengers from other provinces will be transported to their respective destinations by Transtour buses.
