Havana, Cuba (AFP) – Electricity has been restored to almost 90 percent of Havana residents four days after a nationwide blackout hit Cuba, according to the capital’s energy supplier.

Several Cuban provinces were still without power, according to state-run news website Cubadebate, after the collapse of the nation’s largest power plant caused lights to go out across the island on Friday.
