An activist from Havana claims that the Cuban regime is nearing its collapse as the country suffers from a severe fuel shortage disrupting transportation and essential services.
According to independent reports from Cuba and sources at Deník N, the country is facing a critical collapse of transportation systems due to a severe fuel shortage. Long-distance bus services have been canceled, and several international airlines are also suspending flights to the island. The agricultural sector is struggling as farmers lack fuel for tractors, and waste collection services have ceased, leading to piles of garbage in hot tropical weather and the proliferation of mosquitoes that could spread infectious diseases.
Health services in Cuba are now in jeopardy as hospitals lack electricity, resulting in postponed surgeries and canceled treatments for cancer patients. The transportation of patients has also been severely impacted. This situation has arisen from the ongoing restrictions imposed by the U.S. administration under former President Trump, which have compounded the difficulties faced by the totalitarian communist regime established after the 1959 revolution.
Historically, Venezuela supported Cuba with fuel, but after the U.S. intervention that affected Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro's control over the oil industry, these supplies have stopped. Additional support that previously came from Mexico has also ended, as the country seeks to avoid falling out of favor with the U.S. administration. Given these circumstances, the activist's assertion that the regime is close to its end underscores the dire conditions faced by the Cuban populace.
