This vessel is the first to arrive as part of the solidarity convoy, with help collected by civil organizations, and brought mostly food, medical supplies, medicines and renewable energy equipment, such as solar panels.

The solidarity vessel, with 32 passengers of various nationalities, is named Maguro, but was renamed by activists as Granma 2.

Thiago de Ávila, at the head of the crew, stressed that they will not bow to US pressures and will defend the right to peace and self-determination of the peoples of Cuba, Venezuela, Brazil, Palestine, Iran, Yemen and all those who are attacked in any way by Washington.

The Cuban people have the right to live in peace, and for all these reasons and solidarity, we are mobilizing , said the activist and influencer.

At the Havana Bay Cruise Terminal, they were received by local authorities and members of the Convoy Nuestra América who had previously arrived by air.

Also, it is expected that other ships will continue to arrive in solidarity linked to the Convoy.
