Unidentified speaker on broadcast accuses Raúl Castro of ordering downing of planes that killed four and says they will ask Trump to pursue charges

An unidentified speaker on a recorded segment alleged that Raúl Castro personally ordered the downing of small aircraft that killed four people, including three described as 'North Americans from the United States,' and said they will ask President Trump to seek criminal charges.

The speaker said the U.S. president would not "accept this regime in Havana" and framed the administration's posture as applying escalating pressure. "There is a lot of evidence that Raúl Castro personally ordered the downing of those small planes where four individuals were murdered," the speaker said, and added that "we're going to be asking" the president to pursue legal action.

The speaker described the planned request as formal and carefully prepared: "We're drafting it with my team...we're going to be requesting, and I say 'we' because there are two of us colleagues as well." They said the matter would be made public after it is officially filed with the president.

The allegation included two specific factual claims reported by the speaker: that four people died in the incident and that three of them were U.S. nationals. The speaker also said Raúl Castro "has said publicly that he gave the order" and asserted they possess supporting evidence; no corroborating documents, sources, or independent verification were presented in the segment.

No response from Raúl Castro, Cuban authorities, or the U.S. government was included in the recording. The segment closed with the speaker saying the request would be important "not only for history but for things that can happen in the weeks and months to come." The speaker did not describe criminal statutes under which charges would be sought, nor did they provide documentary evidence in the segment.

Next steps according to the speaker: they plan to publicly disclose the formal request after it is filed with the president. The segment did not record any immediate official action, confirmation, or reply from government offices.
