After the protests on Sunday in at least 60 parts of the Cuban island, the government responded with repression and censorship. Díaz-Canel decided, among other measures, to cut the internet to prevent the dissemination of images and hinder connectivity between residents. For this reason, videos and testimonials started to appear little by little.
People residing inside and outside the country have denounced the Cuban authorities for directing physical attacks against the population, which caused the death of a citizen; Furthermore, Cubans denounce the political regime for the disappearance of more than 100 people.
