The US also announced that all remaining members of Cuba's mission to the United Nations will have their travel restricted to the island of Manhattan - the tightest limitations the US now places on any foreign mission to the United Nations, according to the State Department.

"We take any and all attempts against the national security of the United States seriously, and will continue to investigate any additional personnel who may be manipulating their privileges of residence", State Department spokesperson Morgan Ortagus said in a statement released on Thursday.

Ortagus said that the pair had been "abusing their privileges of residence" and attempting to "conduct influence operations against the United States".

"We take any & all attempts against the National Security of the USA seriously", Ortagus said on Twitter.

Due to these spy attempts, the Trump administration is further restricting travel for all members of Cuba's permanent United Nations mission.

"In addition to the required departures, travel within the United States by all members of Cuba's Permanent Mission to the United Nations will now essentially be restricted to the island of Manhattan", she said.

Relations between Cuba and the US have deteriorated under President Donald Trump.

"The Cuban government has targeted the United States by sending personnel under diplomatic cover to engage in influence activities that are prejudicial to US national security", another State Department official told Fox News.
