Venezuela: New Power Outage Hits Residents Amid Political Turmoil

HeadlineMar 26, 2019

In Venezuela, a new power outage has hit over half the country, according to local reports. Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez blamed the blackout on the opposition and their “imperial masters” in Washington, D.C. Power was restored in some parts of the country by late Monday, including the capital Caracas, but residents in other states said they were still in the dark. It comes less than three weeks after a massive power outage plunged most of Venezuela into darkness for days and reportedly resulted in at least 21 deaths.
