Cuba is grappling with a severe energy crisis that has led to widespread blackouts across the island. The country recently experienced a significant outage that left millions in the dark, exacerbated by the impacts of Hurricane Oscar which claimed six lives. Protests have erupted in Havana as citizens express their frustration with the government’s inability to maintain a stable power supply. The Cuban president has vowed to prosecute those involved in protests linked to the blackouts, a reflection of the rising tensions. While power has been restored in some areas, including much of Havana, many Cubans still await electricity as the nation struggles to navigate this ongoing crisis amidst warnings of further unrest and economic paralysis.
