We are writing as a medical organization concerned about the growing humanitarian crisis in Cuba.
On October 18th, 2024, a nationwide blackout occurred due to a failure in Cuba’s Electroenergetic System, leaving millions without power. The ongoing energy crisis has severely impacted essential services such as healthcare, education, and food supply. Cuban authorities and technicians are working hard to restore electricity, but progress has been slow.
