DEVELOPING: Thousands in Cuba take to the streets to demonstrate against increasing Covid-19 cases and deaths and severe economic shortages.

Thousands of Cubans took to the streets of multiple provinces around the Caribbean island this Sunday in an unusual protest in which civilians shouted slogans against the communist government such as “We want freedom” and “We are no longer afraid.”

The central Malecón of the capital, where in August of 1994 Cubans staged a historic protest against former leader Fidel Castro that was violently repressed, also saw hundreds of protesters gathered this Sunday. In Cuba, videos broadcast on social networks, which could be verified by Noticias Telemundo, show special agents known in Cuba as Black Berets, being deployed in some localities and violently detaining civilians who protested and sang peacefully.

“My mother just died. We were in isolation for four days. Four days calling the SIUM to come and look for her. Four days and the SIUM did not arrive,” said Cuban Magdiel Matos outside a hospital in Matanzas.

USA need to stay out we done enough damage there !

No they want freedom from communist and socialism

I call on all American college students to do their part. Rush to Cuba now and explain to them why they don’t want to give up their socialist ways. They must be missing something to be calling for freedom and we can educate them!

President Biden please help these people! Remember Trump ran false advertisement stating that your were the same as their dictatorship in Cuba. That’s why Miami voted against you. This is your chance to show them who you are🇺🇸🙏🙏😂💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

And Communism. Might want to mention Communism. Just a thought.

no mention of communism?

that anti-Cuba protest has an explicit US/CIA finger. Using the same hybrid warfare technique used in Brazil in 2013. America is bigger than the United States. You need limits. Stop interfering where you are not called!

Wait, I was told if we had universal healthcare that life would be so much better. Cubans have universal healthcare, why so angry?

The screams of DV2021winners are covered all over social media. Their humble pleas are placed to everyone. Unbearable agonies are attempting to get everyone's attention, but not been addressed yet. They’re getting mentally broken. Kindly please help them to save their dream. 🙏

US media promoting the Cuban Mafia version of reality, Cuba protests met no police violence, unlike the USA. When are the illegal sanctions going to be lifted and when will the US ease off on its 30 attacks a year on Cuba

Trump held their Stimulus checks we can start there

The US has 620 thousands death of COVID and no protest. Seams Cuba is more democratic than the US.

They’re demonstrating against an oppressive communist regime (of the kind Democrats are trying to bring here, btw).

Mhhm maybe it's the sanctions that the US placed on Cuba for 60 years and every country in the UN except for the US and Israel votes against these illegal cruel sanctions.

I support the CubaLibre folks. I sincerely pray you get your freedom!!! Proud of you!

*Protesting against the communist regime* there I fixed it for you

Republicans jumping in quick to pretend they care so they can keep those voters in South Florida. Meanwhile, Barack Obama was reaching out to Cubans in 2016, but Republicans got big mad.

It’s not about Covid. It’s about freedom.

Ron DeSantis applauds rare Cuba protests as Havana says U.S. plotting interventionIn an unprecedented display of discontent, thousands of Cubans took to the streets in cities across the island demanding food, medicine and an end to the dictatorship. Cuba is happy. Biden is more of a communist than even they are. They can collaborate on the fine details of a well made gulag for political opponents. U.S. , of course, would intervene such protests all over the world. Those Cuba protestor are used as tool to coup the regime.

Video emerges of mass protests against communist dictatorship in Cuba: 'We are not afraid'Thousands of Cuban protesters have taken to the streets demanding an end to the country's communist dictatorship. And pro Trump Americans are demanding a dictatorship. God bless them, protect them and aid their cause. The left wing media has not reported this yet. For those that argued that Hispanics that fear socialism and voted for Trump were mislead. Left wing media is supporting communism right now.
