Cubans march to end animal cruelty in possible first

Hundreds of Cubans have held a march against animal cruelty, in what is thought to be the first independent protest allowed in the country.
Activists walked with their pets and chanted slogans as they demonstrated peacefully in the capital Havana.
They called for an animal protection law as they converged on a tomb of an American woman who is seen as the founder of animal rights in Cuba.
The one-party state has until now only allowed government-sanctioned marches.
