Power restored to most of Havana after nationwide blackout in Cuba

Tropical storm Oscar caused widespread power outages in Cuba, affecting around 10 million people. The island's largest power plant, Antonio Guiteras, collapsed, crippling the entire grid. However, the situation is gradually improving, with electricity restored to around 89% of Havana's customers by Monday afternoon, and over 2 million people having power again. Despite this progress, protests against the government's lack of urgency in resolving the crisis have taken place. The collapse of the power plant was attributed to decades of under-investment and dependence on imported fossil fuel. Meat is scarce, and residents are stocking up on essentials in case power is lost again.
