Cuba grid faces collapse again
The article discusses the collapse of Cuba's power grid on Friday, which resulted in a complete blackout across the country, leaving millions of residents in darkness, especially in Havana. The outage is attributed to a failure in the high-voltage transmission lines. It occurred amid an oil embargo imposed by the United States, which has led to an increase in outages and extended power cuts to over 30 hours in some areas. This collapse is the latest in a series of failures that began in January, as Cuba's electricity generation system has been facing difficulties for years due to fuel shortages and deteriorating infrastructure. The escalation of the embargo—regarded by the United Nations as a violation of international law—threatens to worsen the situation further.
