A massive power outage has swept across large parts of Cuba, leaving millions without electricity as the country’s energy crisis deepens.
Officials said the blackout followed a shutdown at one of the country’s main power plants, placing additional strain on Cuba’s already fragile electricity system. The outage affected major cities including Havana, with widespread disruptions reported across the island. Authorities have warned that fuel shortages and aging infrastructure continue to place pressure on the national power grid. Energy supplies have been further constrained by reduced oil imports and economic pressures affecting the country’s energy sector.
Power outages have become increasingly common in Cuba in recent years, prompting public frustration and economic difficulties for businesses and households. Officials said efforts were underway to restore electricity gradually, but warned that the system remains vulnerable to further disruptions as the country struggles to stabilize its energy supply.
