[02:40] 📉 Between 70% and 72% of the country is left without electricity during peak demand. [03:00] 🏙️ Havana and inland provinces are the most affected by prolonged outages. [03:50] ⚙️ The National Electric Union (UNE) does not provide specific causes, but confirms each blackout through social media. Cuba is facing a severe energy crisis that has caused multiple nationwide blackouts during 2026, massively affecting the population and the country's infrastructure. This week saw the third nationwide blackout, the fifth so far this year, with a total disconnection of the national electrical grid. The National Electric Union (UNE), a state-owned company dependent on the Cuban government, has reported these outages without clarifying details about the specific causes. The crisis has worsened since 2024 due to factors such as the oil embargo imposed by the United States, which limits access to fuel and hinders power generation. The blackouts can last up to 30-35 hours, and in some provinces up to 72 consecutive hours without electricity, affecting up to 70% of the island during peak demand. The recovery of the electrical system is a complex and gradual process, beginning with simple startup sources and then reactivating thermoelectric power plants. However, this process can take several days and has not been enough to prevent repeated service interruptions. 🔴 Latest News from Latin America 📺 700 | 1700 @DIRECTVLA 📺 22 | Telecentro 📺 570 | Flow 📺 514 | Claro 📲 @DGO_LATAM 🔴 +DNEWS +LIVE Schedules 🇦🇷 🇨🇱 🇺🇾 6 to 8 AM DNews at Dawn 8 AM to 12 PM DNews in the Morning 12 to 2 PM DNews First Edition 2 to 8 PM DNews in the Afternoon 8 to 10 PM DNews Central Schedules 🇨🇴 🇪🇨 🇵🇪 4 to 6 AM DNews at Dawn 6 to 10 AM DNews in the Morning 10 AM to 12 PM DNews First Edition 12 to 6 PM DNews in the Afternoon 6 to 8 PM DNews Central Follow us on our social media: X   / dnewsok   Instagram   / dnewsok   Facebook   / dnewsok   Threads https://www.threads.net/@dnewsok TikTok   / dnewsok   We are DNews.
