Havana: A blackout left millions of people in western Cuba, including Havana, without electricity on Wednesday, authorities said.
The national electric company said in a statement the power went out in the early hours of Wednesday in several provinces.
In Havana, home to 1.7 million people, "there is no electricity," the company said.
Cuba is mired in an economic crisis and has endured five nationwide blackouts since late 2024, some of them lasting days.
Cubans also face daily power outages that sometimes last more than 20 hours.
