Havana –
Cuba’s power grid was restored Sunday, officials said, a day after the second nationwide blackout in a week as the crisis-hit island struggles under a U.S. oil blockade.
Two-thirds of Havana had power again in the afternoon, the capital’s electricity company said, a day after the energy ministry reported a “total disconnection” of the national electric system in the country of 9.6 million people.
“Thanks to the efforts of our electrical workers, the SEN (National Electric System) was restored,” Prime Minister Manuel Marrero Cruz said on X late Sunday.
