Millions of people across Cuba were left without electricity after the country experienced its latest major blackout, according to BBC News.

The outage is part of a pattern of widespread power failures that have become increasingly common on the island, the report said.

According to BBC News, the disruptions have been driven in large part by fuel shortages, which have been exacerbated by the long-running US blockade of Cuba.

The scale of the current blackout and its exact duration were not immediately detailed in available reporting. BBC News did not specify how long power might take to be restored or which regions were most affected.

Cuba has faced repeated energy crises in recent years, with aging infrastructure and limited access to fuel imports contributing to strain on the national grid, as noted in the report.

This article will be updated as further details become available.
