Cuba's Power Grid Collapses Again After Second Hurricane. And Then an Earthquake Hit

Wednesday Cuba was hit by a major hurricane which took down its entire power grid again, this time for about 24 hours, according to CNN:

Videos of the aftermath showed power infrastructure turned into a mangled mess and power poles down on streets. Hundreds of technicians were mobilized Thursday to reestablish power connections, according to state media... Operations at two electrical plants were partially restored and parts of eastern and central Cuba had electricity back up by Thursday afternoon, state media reported... The country's power grid has collapsed multiple times, including when Hurricane Oscar hit in October and killed at least 7 people.
In the capital of Havana, where 2 million people live, power had been restored to less than 20% of the city by late Friday afternoon,. 'Authorities had not yet given an estimate for when power would be fully restored...'
Then tonight, CNN reported:

A 6.8 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of eastern Cuba on Sunday, causing material damage in several regions as the island continues to recover from widespread blackouts and the impact of two hurricanes over the past few weeks. The earthquake was reported about 39 km (24 miles) south of Bartolomé Masó before noon local time, about an hour after a 5.9 magnitude quake rocked the area, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) said.
'There have been landslides, damage to homes and power lines,' Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel said, adding that authorities are evaluating the situation to start recovery efforts.
