ALT1:... that in December 1971 the government of Cuba seized two freighters off the Cuban cost, accusing them of transporting weapons, explosives, and CIA agents?
Overall: Article is new enough, long enough, well-sourced, and neutral. A spot check of the sources reveals no evidence of plagiarism. I prefer the first hook, because that's what drew me into the article (and after this, I'm off to sign up to review it for GA), which is of an appropriate length and cited in the article by several sources, both on and offline. The second hook should read "1971" instead of "1970", but is otherwise cited, although somewhat less interesting in my opinion. QPQ done, so this one should be good to go.

Thanks for the review, and for the offer of a GA review. I've fixed the typo. Regards, Vanamonde (talk) 17:00, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
