Antero Rubín Homent (February 15, 1851 – May 1, 1935[1]) was a Spanish general and politician noted for his long service in Cuba.

He fought in the Spanish–American War, served in the Cortes Generales,[2][3] and spent the final years of his life as senator for the province of Zamora.

Rubín returned home shortly afterwards with his statutory promotion to lieutenant and began his studies at Vigo, Pontevedra and Santiago de Compostella.

He conducted himself well at the Battle of Las Guasimas, where his small force fought a very successful rearguard operation,[4] bloodying Joseph Wheeler's V Corps before retiring in good order to Santiago de Cuba.

This city was put under siege after a bloody struggle at San Juan Hill and on July 18 General José Toral y Velázquez reached an agreement with the Americans and capitulated.
