• Q&A Why is Cuba burning?

  • Protests The repression in Cuba has already added dozens of detainees

The

ABC

correspondent

in Cuba,

Camila Acosta,

was arrested this Monday when she left her home in Havana to carry out a personal procedure, as reported by the medium itself, after it was advanced by Cubanet, a digital company for which she also works.

Hours before the arrest took place, the journalist had been covering the protests that are taking place in the Cuban capital against the Díaz-Canel government.

Acosta had

blocked access to the Internet

and the messaging application 'WhatsApp' since the last hour of Sunday, a reason that "justified", according to

ABC

, that he did not respond to messages and calls.

"If the Cuban regime does not reconsider, or the world forces them to reconsider

, the blood will flow, because the Cuban people have shouted out loud that they lost their fear,"

Acosta wrote in his last message on the social network Twitter.

"It is time to pressure them to leave power. If we give in now, we will have many more years of dictatorship," the correspondent added.
