Thousands of protesters took to the streets of the Cuban capital on Sunday in the largest anti-government rally in the country in decades.

The unrest was triggered by the island nation's worsening economic crisis, record numbers of COVID-19 cases, lack of basic goods and crackdown on civil liberties.

Footage shows protesters calling for President Miguel Diaz-Canel to resign, with some being arrested by the police.

Diaz-Canel accused the US of 'orchestrating' the unrest via social media campaigns and by sending 'mercenaries' to the country.
