Al Jazeera English published this video item, entitled “Cubans hit with US sanctions: Families send food instead of money” – below is their description.
The Cuban peso’s one-to-one exchange rate with the US dollar is to be devalued for the first time in more than 50 years.
That will hurt the already struggling island country, where the economy is mostly state-owned.
Families there also face tough sanctions enforced under US President Donald Trump.
Al Jazeera’s Teresa Bo reports on how some people are getting creative in order to survive.
