Cuba has begun the process of restoring electricity to its national grid following a complete blackout that plunged the island into darkness on Monday.
Officials confirmed that power restoration is underway, though the process is being hampered by adverse weather conditions that have introduced new complications to the recovery effort.
This outage marks the sixth nationwide blackout the country has experienced since the start of 2026.
The frequency of these disruptions highlights the persistent vulnerability of Cuba's energy infrastructure, which has struggled to maintain stability throughout the year.
The latest failure follows a pattern of recurring grid collapses.
Previous outages have similarly required gradual restoration efforts, with the state-owned electric company, UNE, confirming the resumption of operations only after significant delays.
