Cuba begins restoring power

 
Pockets of Cuba's capital Havana saw the lights flicker back on though vast areas of the city and country continued without electricity on Sunday morning, after a nationwide grid collapse that knocked out power to 10 million people. Havana's electric company said that approximately 19% of its clients in the city had seen power restored. Cuba's energy and mines ministry said that it had fired up its Felton power plant, one of the country's largest and a major benchmark for restoring power in the eastern provinces. — Reuters
