The Castro regime reinstated former agents of the Technical Department of Investigations (DTI) in Havana to address a shortage of operational personnel caused by the sustained exodus of active officers, according to exclusive images released by the Cuba Primero movement and obtained by La Tijera News during the reporting window from 11:45:50 PM on February 24, 2026, to 12:46:09 AM on February 25, 2026. The reinstatement, shown in images from Cuba Primero, responds to weakened operational capacity in the capital's repressive organs due to low salaries, poor working conditions, economic deterioration, and officers' fears of future accountability in a potential political transition, as reported by La Tijera News citing available information. This development occurred over the past hour amid Cuba's ongoing energy and social crises. Cuba Primero's images depict agents previously retired or out of service returning to duty, indicating the regime's urgent efforts to bolster its internal control amid instability and discontent, per the La Tijera News report shared on X by @echezabaljd71.
