Venezuela Blackout: Cyber-Attacks, Sabotage, & 'Mighty' Cuban Intelligence

According to Maduro, electrical systems were targeted by cyberattacks and "infiltrators". He added that authorities managed to restore power to "many parts" of the country on March 8, but the restored systems were knocked down after the country's grid was once again attacked. He noted that "one of the sources of generation that was working perfectly" had been sabotaged and accused "infiltrators of attacking the electric company from the inside."

Communication and information minister Jorge Rodriguez described the situation as "the most brutal attack on the Venezuelan people in 200 years". He also described the situation as the "deliberate sabotage" on behalf of the US-backed opposition.

In own turn, the US continues to reject claims accusing it of attempts to destabilize the situation in the country. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo even claimed that Washington and its allies would not hurt the "ordinary Venezuelans." According to him, what's hurting the people is the "Maduro regime's incompetence."
