The majority of Cubans remain without power for the third day in a row after fresh attempts to restore electricity failed overnight
Millions of Cubans remained without power for a third day in a row Sunday after fresh attempts to restore electricity failed overnight The Cuban Electrical Union said about 16% of the country had had power restored when the aging energy grid again overloaded late Saturday. Officials did not provide an update on when service would be reestablished. This marks the third full collapse of Cuba’s energy grid since Friday, and most in the 10 million-strong country have had their access to power interrupted the whole time. Recovery efforts will be complicated further by the arrival of Hurricane Oscar in eastern Cuba, which is expected to bring heavy winds and surf, forecasters said. Cuba’s first island-wide blackout happened on Friday, when one of the country’s major power plants failed, according to the energy ministry. Hours after officials said power was being slowly restored, the country suffered a second nationwide blackout on Saturday morning.
