Coast Guard repatriates 56 Cuban migrants

The Coast Guard repatriated a total of 56 migrants back to Cuba as a
result of two different operations Monday and Wednesday.

The repatriations were a result of three migrant interdiction operations
last week.

In all cases, the migrants were intercepted when they were sailing
aboard rustic vessels close to the Florida Keys.

A spokesman with the 7th Coast Guard District said the migrant activity
in the Florida Straits is usual for this time of the year.
