Cuban authorities act to block alleged US-funded attempt to overthrow the government

CUBAN authorities have banned a series of marches that were aimed at destabilising the country, claiming that the organisers are linked to groups financed by the US government.

It said that the demonstrations were set to be held in several provinces including Havana, Villa Clara and Las Tunas.

The actions, which were planned for November 15, were rejected as a threat to public order and a breach of the nation’s constitution.
