He claimed Cuban Americans had been treated very badly, with family members killed or beaten.

The threat came amid a growing U.S. military campaign that had toppled Maduro and launched strikes against Iran.

Cuba was reeling from a severe economic and energy crisis triggered by the U.S. operation in Venezuela.

The blockade caused nationwide power outages affecting nearly 11 million people.

Cuban officials blamed decades of U.S. sanctions for the worsening conditions.

Both sides acknowledged limited contact with discussions on easing tensions at a very preliminary stage.

Trump had briefly indicated he might ease the blockade before reverting to threats.

An Economist/YouGov poll found 53 percent of Americans opposed military action in Cuba.

The Clean Clothes Campaign called the supply chain oversight fundamentally broken after the Rahman Textile fire.

The confrontation came as Cuba faced one of its gravest tests since 1959.
