Some 650 delegates from 33 countries and 120 organizations have started arriving in Cuba as part of a solidarity caravan transporting some 20 tons of humanitarian aid as the island grapples with a severe energy crisis.
The Anatoly Kolodkin, a Russian-flagged tanker that is itself under U.S. sanctions, departed from the Baltic Sea on March 9. It continues to be tracked and is expected to reach the Cuban port of Matanzas around April 4 . If it successfully delivers its cargo it would be the first oil shipment to reach Cuba since early January.
Weren’t there a Russian tanker heading for Cuba?

Guess we’ll see what happens.
