A major failure in Cuba's national power grid has caused widespread blackouts across the country. The incident has left approximately 10 million residents without electricity.

According to Reuters, the state-run operator of the country's energy system, UNE, stated that an investigation is underway to determine the causes of the nationwide blackout.

According to official reports, even before the major failure, power supply disruptions were observed in approximately two-thirds of Cuba's territory.

Cuba has been grappling with persistent power cuts in recent months due to aging energy infrastructure and fuel shortages. The latest incident has worsened the situation in the country amid ongoing economic difficulties and has had a serious impact on the daily lives of residents.
