World2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported42m ago
More than 2.7 million people in Cuba are experiencing disruptions to their water supply as of October 23. The National Institute of Hydraulic Resources attributes these service interruptions primarily to ongoing electrical outages and mechanical failures within the country's water supply infrastructure.
Simultaneously, the Cuban public transportation system is facing severe operational challenges. According to Minister of Transport Eduardo Rodríguez Dávila, the sector is currently experiencing its lowest level of service in history, making the movement of the population across the country increasingly difficult.
