Civil unrest, protests, and strikes had been escalating, fueled by dissatisfaction with the dictatorship's corruption and disregard for basic human rights. Opposition forces, including students, workers, and political groups, united against Machado and his government. The movement gained momentum with widespread support from the Cuban population, culminating in a decisive pushback against the dictatorship. As pressure mounted, Machado's grip on power weakened, leading to his eventual downfall and flight from Cuba.
