Thousands of Cubans gathered on Friday before the US embassy in Havana to protest a US decision to indict former president Raul Castro over the downing of two civilian airplanes 30 years ago.
The pro-government demonstration, which began shortly after sunrise on Havana’s waterfront, came as Cuban officials rallied this week around the island’s revolutionary hero.
The 94-year-old elder statesman was not present.
