UPDATE: South Florida Law Enforcement is on alert. An EOC (Emergency
Operations Center) has been set-up and manned somewhere in Homestead.
U.S. Local News stations are abuzz, mostly on reports very much like
the above, with massive law enforcement mobilizations throughout Dade
county.

U.S. Senior officials said that while there are reports on setbacks in Fidel Castro’s health, there are no indications that his death is imminent.

Nothing unusual has been reported from Havana. However, Miami is ablaze with rumors, NBC News reported.

On Thursday, Cuba’s foreign minister said rumors about Fidel Castro’s deteriorating health are untrue.

Felipe Perez Roque made the comments to reporters while attending the Forum for East Asia-Latin American Cooperation in Brazil.

Cubans were hoping Fidel would make a public appearance during his birthday celebrations nearly two weeks ago.

When asked if the 81-year-old Castro was still in charge of Cuban affairs, Roque said, “He is being informed and consulted constantly.”Copyright 2007 by NBC6.net
