Cuba will no longer process visas for U.S. travel to the country, The Hill reported on Saturday.
The Cuban government announced Friday that travel will end until a new U.S. bank is found that can process its visa fees.

Cuba’s decision means only humanitarian travel will be permitted to the country.
