Fidel Castro Makes First Public Appearance in Months
Nope, not dead yet
Former President of Cuba Fidel Castro made a rare public appearance to attend the opening of an art studio in Cuba's capital on Wednesday, the Associated Press reports.
Cuban newspapers, broadcasts and websites all publicized a photo Thursday of Castro at the event. The photo shows the back of the former leader's head as he points to a statue. He last appeared in public on April 9, 2013 when he attended the inauguration of a school in Havana. Video footage of the event showed the former leader's face.
