Cuba starts demobilizing thousands of troops
Havana -- Cuba began demobilizing thousands of reserve troops this week
on alert since President Fidel Castro temporarily handed power to
brother Raul Castro for health reasons, Communist Party sources said
yesterday.
The alert for civilian rapid-response brigades in case of domestic
unrest was also winding down, the sources said.
The winding down of the alert is the latest indication an ailing Mr.
Castro was recovering and Cuba was calm with Raul Castro in charge. Reuters
