It based its assessment on the \u201crhythm\u201d of US military deployments around Cuba \u2013 which it said intensified in recent months \u2013 and on political cycles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs the <span data-qa=\"Component-Text\" class=\"css-0 ef9u0v00\">US-Iran gambit<\/span> slides towards a defining conclusion, the US urgently needs to achieve a low-cost, high-yield symbolic strategic victory in its \u2018geopolitical backyard\u2019 of the western hemisphere to restore its global dominance and deterrence posture,\u201d it said in an article published on its social media account on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1\">The timing of the US midterm elections in November was also cited as a potential driver, with the company suggesting that US President Donald Trump might seek a quick win to boost political support.<\/p>\n<p datatype=\"p\" data-qa=\"Component-Component\" class=\"e8zc9q40 css-1c6uqr6 ec74h0k1\">However, it also added that the potential summer window was constrained by high uncertainty in the US-Iran war, which could divert US military resources to the Middle East and ultimately determine whether any operation against Cuba was feasible.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmp.com\/news\/china\/military\/article\/3356143\/summer-most-likely-window-us-attack-cuba-chinese-defence-tech-firm-says\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summer most likely window for US attack on Cuba, Chinese defence tech firm says https:\/\/www.scmp.com\/news\/china\/military\/article\/3356143\/summer-most-likely-window-us-attack-cuba-chinese-defence-tech-firm-says&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":264950,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cdn.i-scmp.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/og_image_scmp_generic\/public\/d8\/images\/canvas\/2026\/06\/05\/df913e5c-1435-46e1-af26-8b29c4439a47_62ab3e2f.jpg?itok=f8Ixztau&v=1780656546","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[57],"class_list":["post-264948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology","tag-security"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/264948"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=264948"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/264948\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":264951,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/264948\/revisions\/264951"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/264950"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=264948"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=264948"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=264948"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
