Caracas suffers an unexpected blackout on Thursday, affecting various sectors of the city. The outage is reportedly due to a failure at the Punceres electrical substation, leaving areas such as La Candelaria, San Bernardino, and the city center without power. Users on social media have reported the closure of Metro stations and inoperative traffic lights. Corpoelec crews are on site to address the issue, but the blackout has caused widespread inconvenience for residents. This outage comes amidst ongoing power outages in Ukraine and highlights the importance of maintaining reliable electricity infrastructure.
