Power begins to return to Iberian peninsula after unprecedented blackout
Briefly

Spain's prime minister Pedro Sanchez announced efforts to restore power following an unprecedented blackout that left millions without electricity. The blackout, caused by extreme temperature variations, disrupted public transportation, communication systems, and essential services, with hospitals relying on generators for critical care. Sanchez reported that half of the national electricity supply had been restored shortly after the outage. Mayor Jose Luis Martinez-Almeida advised citizens to minimize travel to assist emergency responders. The incident caused chaos, with people trapped in lifts, and raised concerns about the stability of Spain's electrical systems.
Pedro Sanchez stated, "Everything possible is being done overnight to restore power to all parts of the country following an unprecedented regional blackout."
