Cuba experienced its seventh major blackout of the year on Friday, resulting in a total disconnection of the national electrical system. The energy ministry announced the outage on X, though it did not specify an immediate cause for the failure.
The widespread power failure occurs amid ongoing fuel shortages and relies on outdated thermoelectric plants. Additionally, the island's energy infrastructure challenges are compounded by the existing U.S. embargo.
