I'm Cory with the story, bringing you the latest from around the world. Cuban activists, Yohani Sanchez claims a plane-close officer is preventing her from leaving her home in Havana. She shared a video on Facebook showing her confronting the man who refused to identify himself and blocked her exit. This incident follows recent protests in the town of Moran, where demonstrators damaged the local communist party headquarters. The unrest stems from ongoing energy blackouts and severe food shortages across the island. Sanchez argued forcefully with the man, insisting she has committed no crime and faces no legal restrictions like house arrest. She questioned his authority and noted he seemed afraid to be seen, with his face partially covered. Two women who do not live in her building have also been spotted wandering the area since the officer arrived, adding to her suspicions. This is not the first such encounter for Sanchez. Back in January, State Security agents detained her while she headed to an event at the U.S. Chief of Mission's Residence.
