Exclusive from Cuba: the tragedy of Marta's family and many "balseros", and the regime's responsibilities
Nobody reports that the Cuban regime forbids any boat from picking up victims of shipwrecks, in dire situations like this one, happened last Jan 24. An #SOS is needed for this human rights scandal
The age of Marta Vázquez Molina is 56. She has three daughters, three grandkids, and one son: 25-year-old Yarelys Mesa Vázquez, married to 22-year-old Osdennys Salinas Martnez; Gilberto Lorenzo Vázquez, a 21-year-old bachelor; 35-year-old Yamilis Triana Vázquez, and 27-year-old Yailín Mesa Vázquez.
Yarelys, her husband, and Gilberto have been in prison since July 12, 2021. The Cuban dictatorship condemned them for nothing more than taking to the streets on July 11, 2021, to call for freedom and the right to a decent life in Cuba.
However, since January 25, Marta has been even more desperate, which is why she got in touch with me. (at the bottom is a small excerpt from Marta's complaint)
