A third attempted ambush against the United States Ambassador in Cuba occurred on February 1, 2026, between 8:16 PM and 9:15 PM UTC, despite a prior State Department warning, according to a post on X by Agus Antonetti. The incident took place in Havana amid ongoing US-Cuba tensions. The report describes the Cuban regime as 'playing with fire' following the State Department's warning, marking the third such attempt against the ambassador. This development follows President Donald Trump's confirmation earlier at 7:00 PM UTC of negotiations underway with high-ranking Cuban officials, as stated in a prior post by the same source. No further details on the timing, location specifics, or outcomes of the attempted ambush were provided in the X post. The State Department's warning was referenced but not detailed in the report.
