US Arrests Sister of Cuban Military Conglomerate Leader in Florida

Adys Lastres Morera, sister of Ania Guillermina Lastres Morera, executive president of GAESA—a Cuban military-controlled conglomerate—was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Florida. She entered the U.S. as a lawful permanent resident in January 2023, but authorities revoked her status and initiated removal proceedings, citing conflicts with U.S. foreign policy toward Cuba. GAESA is accused by U.S. officials of profiting from various sectors and diverting aid meant for the Cuban people.
