Cuba says six agents confessed to CIA and sabotage
The Cuban government paraded six men before OLAS claiming they confessed to anti Castro activity. Two admitted CIA links and four acknowledged Second Front sabotage roles. The men were captured over 1962 to 1965 after sailing from the United States and in some cases after armed operations in Cuba. A Uruguayan delegate urged a resolution condemning U.S. imperialism. Separate item notes risks of tool injury at home with mushrooming chisel heads and safety guidance from a Nebraska extension specialist.
