Cuba — 항의: 평화로운 시위

Summary

Single-source ACLED detection — awaiting independent verification. On April 8, 2025, dozens of residents in Bejuquero, a community in Guisa, Granma province, Cuba, staged a peaceful protest over prolonged electricity outages lasting over three months and government removal of power lines without explanation to locals.

Supply chain impact

No commodities or chokepoints are directly mapped to this event; second-order effects depend on how the situation escalates. Local electricity infrastructure disruptions in rural Cuban communities typically have minimal direct impact on international supply chains, though sustained power issues could affect any regional agricultural or light manufacturing operations if the outages spread beyond this isolated area.

Watch points

• Monitor whether electricity protests spread to other Cuban provinces, particularly areas with sugar, tobacco, or nickel production
• Track government response and any broader infrastructure restoration efforts that could indicate systemic power grid issues
