In the wake of several terrorist bombings in Havana, Cuba, it is said that the Cuban Five was not sent to spy on the United States government, but to only spy on Miami’s Cuban exile community. This attack then became a driving force for the spies’ later actions in the United States. On October 6th, 1976, “Cubana 455” was bombed out of the sky, which was the first airliner to be hit by a terrorist group in the western hemisphere. All members of the Cuban Five were first noticed by Cuban intelligence fighting as Cuban soldiers in Angola (Central Africa) against apartheid. The names of these men are Gerardo Hernández, Antonio Guerrero, Ramón Labañino, Fernando González, and René González. The Cuban Five, or also known as the Miami Five, consists of five Cuban intelligence officers.
