<p>Electricity was restored to the city later in the day and &#8220;two truckloads of rice&#8221; were delivered, <strong>the witness said.</strong></p>

<p><strong>The former contractor for the U.S. Agency for International Development  was working on a program to improve Internet access for Jewish Cubans</strong>. <strong> During several trips to Cuba, he had covertly distributed laptops. </strong>A  Cuban court found him guilty of crimes against the state in 2011, and  sentenced him to 15 years in prison.</p>
