Venezuela Recovers From Blackout As Guaido ‘Approves’ Military Treaty Reincorporation
Caracas, July 24, 2019 (venezuelanalysis.com) – Electricity has been gradually restored in Venezuela after a widespread outage affected most of the territory on Monday. The blackout started at approximately 4.45 pm, with Venezuelan authorities blaming an “electromagnetic attack” against the Simon Bolivar Hydroelectric Plant, known as the Guri Dam, the country’s main electricity source. No further details on the nature and source of the attack have been given so far. Power had been restored to most of Caracas by Tuesday morning, despite momentary setbacks. Areas both to the east and west country had service restored already on Monday evening.
