Summary
Cuba’s national electrical grid collapsed early Wednesday after its largest power plant, Antonio Guiteras, shut down.
The failure, caused by aging infrastructure and dwindling fuel imports from Venezuela, Russia, and Mexico, left most of the island’s 10 million people, including Havana, without power.
This marks the latest in a series of outages worsened by hurricanes and economic crises.
The government is working to restore the grid, but nationwide blackouts have become increasingly frequent amid the country’s worsening energy challenges.
OP, there’s a strike and members of The Guardian staff ask that you don’t share links. Don’t cross the picket line
I’m not so clear, reading about Tortoise Media, what’s so bad about it. Can you explain please?
It looks like just another capitalist mouthpiece spreading imperial propaganda. Completely uncontroversial.
I assume you already think that about the Guardian and the Observer, right?
