Answer:

Explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Martial law is temporary military control over usual normal civil functions, this can include many things, and mainly has to do with government law. When this is enacted military assumes control of this law. For the Cubans, this would mean that their actions and the laws that restrict them from doing certain actions would be dictated by the military as opposed to the usual government that imposes these laws.
