Guantánamo orders mass evacuations ahead of Melissa

Guantánamo Province officials in eastern Cuba ordered large-scale evacuations as Hurricane Melissa approached.

The NBC report places the evacuation order in the context of the wider Caribbean storm response.

It also mentions severe conditions elsewhere in the region, but this article focuses on the Cuban evacuation because that is the clearest verified claim in the packet.

No logistical detail is added beyond the scale of the order, because the excerpt does not provide it.

The main news point is the size and urgency of the evacuation response in eastern Cuba.

The report is deliberately restrained. It does not add casualty totals, geopolitical analysis, or technical detail beyond what the supplied evidence supports. That keeps the story faithful to the packet while still giving readers a clear account of what was said, where it happened, and why it mattered.
