The Trump administration has taken the unusual step of sending a government plane to Cuba to return a 10-year-old at the center of a complicated and contentious custody fight involving the child’s gender identity. The child’s parent, Rose Inessa-Ethington, a transgender woman, is accused of taking the child to Cuba without permission. Utah police sought the child's return after concerns arose about possible gender-affirming surgery. Inessa-Ethington and her partner were arrested and charged with international parental kidnapping. The child has been returned to the biological mother. The case highlights ongoing debates over gender-affirming care for minors in the U.S.
