Nationwide power outage in Cuba, energy officials confirm. Other than the hotels, government buildings and homes with generators it seems nearly all of Cuba’s 10 million inhabitants are once again without power.

Alrededor de las 20: 15 horas de esta noche , una avería en la subestación del Diezmero provocó la perdida importante de generación en el occidente de #Cuba y con ello la caída del Sistema Eléctrico Nacional, SEN, ya se trabaja en el proceso de recuperación.

Trump plan to send 30k migrants to Guantanamo Navy Base “an act of brutality,” Cuban government says.

En acto de brutalidad, nuevo gobierno de EEUU anuncia encarcelamiento en Base Naval en Guantánamo, ubicada en territorio de #Cuba ilegalmente ocupado, de miles de migrantes que expulsa forzosamente, a los que ubicará junto a las conocidas cárceles de tortura y detención ilegal.

Cuban officials clearly irate to learn Trump has replaced them on terror list less than a week after Biden took them off. Cuban Pres. Diaz-Canel says impacts of terror list designation have lead to “significant increase of migrants from Cuba to US.”

Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez @DiazCanelB

El resultado de las medidas extremas de cerco económico impuestas por Trump ha sido provocar carencias en nuestro pueblo y un incremento significativo del flujo migratorio de #Cuba hacia Estados Unidos.

Just in: President Donald Trump on Monday revoked Biden-era executive actions that withdrew Cuba's designation as a state sponsor of terror.

“The expanded canal has reaped billions of dollars for Panama and helped the country became a rare bastion of stability in Central America where other nations are beset by poverty and violent drug trafficking that fuel migration to the US.” My story. https://t.co/kK6jl1L0vI

Odet Hernández — of the demonstrators I featured in the days after the July 11, 2021 protests— was freed Sunday and is with her family.

Where are our loved ones? That is the question for many families in Cuba, with almost 700 people arrested according to activists in the wake of a government crackdown earlier this month. @CNN_Oppmann investigates what’s really going on. https://t.co/rLF2ACxQm6

Cuban dissident Jose Daniel Ferrer has reportedly just been released from prison. He was jailed following the widespread July 11 protests. The Cuban government says it is releasing 553 prisoners at the request of the Vatican as the Biden admin eases sanctions on Cuba.

Marco Rubio just now on the Biden administration’s delisting of Cuba as a state sponsor of terror, “Nothing that the Biden administration has agreed to in the last 12 or 18 hours binds the next administration, which starts on Monday.”
