古巴电网再次崩溃,全国数百万民众断电,今年至少已是第六次

古巴电网周五再次崩溃,导致全岛数百万民众断电,这是自特朗普总统今年1月切断对古巴燃料供应以来,该国至少第六次发生大规模停电。

古巴能源和矿业部通过其官方X账号宣布了此次全岛停电,并补充称官员已启动“恢复供电预案”。

“没人能忍受这种持续停电。没有足够的食物,没有水,没有电——你们根本无法想象我们的处境,”哈瓦那60岁的工人梅赛德斯·罗德里格斯在等候公共交通回家时告诉美联社,“这个国家处境凄惨,我们正在经历的一切难以用言语形容。”

据古巴官方消息,该国西部的输电线路发生故障,导致包括马坦萨斯省在内的西部区域电网崩溃,随后全岛东部区域也被切断供电。

官方报纸《格拉玛报》报道称,“不稳定”的天气状况进一步加剧了电网危机。

根据官方数据,截至黄昏时分,哈瓦那约86.2万用户中已有5%恢复供电。古巴目前正在卡马圭、比尼亚莱斯和格拉玛等省份设立小型配电“微电网”。部分为医院及其他应急设施供电的系统已重新启动。

家庭主妇阿比伦·马雷罗周五在哈瓦那市中心的住宅楼入口处无奈静坐。

“也许今天下午或者明天就会恢复供电——根本无从知晓。我们只能等待,”她说。

过去两年间,由于古巴深陷严重经济危机,电网崩溃事件愈发频繁。今年1月美国实施旨在迫使古巴改变政治体制的能源封锁后,停电情况进一步恶化。特朗普总统签署行政令,对向古巴出售或提供石油的国家征收关税。

这些限制措施导致古巴无法进口运行火力发电厂所需的燃料,以及维护多数已过时的基础设施所需的更换零件。自禁令实施以来,仅有一艘俄罗斯油轮于今年3月向古巴运送了一船燃油。

最近两次全国性停电发生在8月初,此前7月和3月也曾发生停电,此外还有多起区域性停电事件。

即便国家电网正常运行时,古巴民众也经常要连续承受超过30小时的停电。古巴常驻联合国大使埃内斯托·索贝龙·古斯曼上月在与哥伦比亚广播公司新闻交谈时,将停电称为“集体惩罚”。

停电对民众生活造成严重影响,加之能源禁运,导致交通受限、工作时长缩短、航班取消,还引发了严重的公共卫生问题。

停电还影响了烹饪、供水、互联网和电话服务等基本日常活动。

哥伦比亚广播公司新闻此前曾报道,特朗普政府还秘密研究了一系列可能对古巴采取军事行动的方案。官员们强调,讨论了包括陆军主导的空中突袭在内的多种选项的军事简报,并不意味着特朗普总统或五角大楼已决定实施军事行动。

美国国务卿马可·鲁比奥强调,美国更倾向于通过外交途径推动古巴由技术官僚领导并愿意推行经济改革的新政府过渡,但尽管特朗普政府施加了压力,这一进程仍陷入停滞。

特朗普此前曾将美国推翻并逮捕前委内瑞拉总统尼古拉斯·马杜罗、扶植友好继任者的行动,作为他希望在古巴实现的目标的潜在蓝本。

Cuba’s power grid collapses again, leaving millions without electricity for at least 6th time this year

Cuba’s power grid collapsed once again on Friday, leaving millions of people across the island without electricity for at least the sixth time since President Trump cut off fuel to the island in January.

The Ministry of Energy and Mines announced the islandwide power outage on its official X account and added that officials had begun “activating service-restoration protocols.”

“No one can stand these constant blackouts. There isn’t enough food, there’s no water, there’s no electricity — you have no idea,” Mercedes Rodriguez, a 60-year-old worker in Havana, told The Associated Press as she waited for public transportation to return home. “The country is in such a sad state, and there are no words for what we’re going through.”

According to Cuban authorities, a failure reportedly occurred in transmission lines in the western part of the country, causing the system to collapse in that area — as far as Matanzas province — and the eastern section of the island was subsequently disconnected.

The official newspaper Granma reported “unstable” weather conditions further aggravated the grid’s situation.

By dusk, power had been restored to 5% of users in Havana, which has a total of about 862,000 customers, according to official data. Small power-distribution “micro-islands” were being established in the provinces of Camagüey, Pinar del Río and Granma. Some systems serving hospitals and other emergency facilities were being reactivated.

Abilén Marrero, a homemaker, sat resignedly at the entrance to her building in central Havana on Friday.

“Maybe it’ll come back this afternoon or tomorrow—there’s no way to know. We just have to wait,” she said.

Power grid collapses have become increasingly common over the past two years because of the severe economic crisis gripping the island. They have worsened since January, after the United States imposed an energy blockade aimed at forcing a change in Cuba’s political system. Mr. Trump signed an executive order that would impose tariffs on countries that sell or provide oil to Cuba.

The restrictions prevent Cuba from importing the fuel needed to operate its thermoelectric power plants, as well as replacement parts required to maintain infrastructure that in many cases has become obsolete. Just one tanker of fuel has been delivered since, by a Russian tanker in March.

The two most recent nationwide blackouts occurred in early August, following others in July and March, as well as several regional outages.

Even when the national power grid is working, Cubans regularly endure outages lasting more than 30 consecutive hours. Ernesto Soberón Guzman, the Cuban ambassador to the United Nations, called the outages a “collective punishment” in a conversation with CBS News last month.

The blackouts have had a significant impact on the population and, combined with the energy embargo, have led to transportation limitations, reduced work hours and flight cancellations, in addition to serious public health consequences.

The power outages also affect basic activities such as cooking, water supply and internet and telephone service.

The Trump administration has also quietly examined a range of options for possible military action against the island, CBS News previously reported. Officials stressed that military briefings, which discussed options including an Army-led air assault, were not an indication that President Trump or the Pentagon have decided to carry out an operation.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has emphasized the U.S. prefers a diplomatic option for a transition to a new government led by technocrats and willing to make economic reforms, but that process has stalled despite the pressure from the Trump administration.

Mr. Trump has previously highlighted the U.S. overthrow and arrest of former Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro and the installation of a friendly successor as a potential blueprint for what he would like to achieve in Cuba.
