So, let's hear more about this story.
Five people were arrested in Cuba after a small protest destroyed the offices
in the central city of Moron overnight last weekend, Cuba's Interior Ministry said.
These protests come as a reaction to electricity blackouts and shortages of food, fuel and medicine,
which have been worsened by a US blockade on oil.
Yes, a blockade happens when certain goods, such as oil, are stopped from coming into a place.
Cuban President Miguel Díaz Canel said on Friday that no fuel had entered the country in three months.
The capital, Havana, has seen blackouts of up to 15 hours a day.
This has affected hospitals, public transport, education, rubbish collection and heavily impacted Cuba's economy.
Let's have a look at our first headline.
This headline is from BBC News.
That headline again from BBC News.
