Following three days of nationwide blackouts caused by the collapse of Cuba’s electrical system, power was restored to most of Havana on Monday, after Cuban authorities gave up efforts to restore the entire grid for now and opted to try to hook up individual regions around the country.

Electricity has been restored to half of Havana, the Cuban capital's power company reported Monday, four days after the start of a nationwide blackout that the authorities have struggled to address. The government has said that electricity is expected to be restored to most of the country by the end of Monday.

Havana: Some electricity was restored in Cuba, the government said Saturday, after the island nation's worst blackout in at least two years kicked in when a major power plant failed and left millions without electricity for two days.
