Cuba's national electricity system has been restored following a complete grid failure that marked the third such blackout in just eight days.
The state-owned electric company, UNE, confirmed that operations resumed on the morning of July 15, bringing an end to the most recent widespread outage that affected Havana and other regions.
The rapid succession of failures highlights the persistent instability in the island's utility sector.
While the grid is currently operational, the frequency of these disruptions suggests underlying structural weaknesses rather than isolated incidents.
The restoration follows a period of intense strain on the system, with residents facing repeated interruptions to essential services.
Compounding the electricity crisis, a technical failure in Havana's manufactured gas distribution network has cut off supply to parts of the capital.
