Cuba reconnected its national electrical grid and restored power to the majority of the capital Havana by late on Sunday, energy officials said, nearly two days after an island-wide outage knocked out power to 10 million people.

Millions of people in Cuba remained without power Saturday after a failure of the nation's electric grid left the island in the dark the previous night. The blackout is the fourth in the last six months as a severe economic crisis plagues the Caribbean country.
