The latest protests in Cuba are about thirst: Over 600,000 people live without drinking water
Briefly

Residents of La Rosita took to the streets after 17 days without water. Protests forced the government to bring water trucks, but the root cause remains unaddressed.
The water crisis is rooted in Cuba's overall decline, inadequate pipeline maintenance, and fuel shortages, severely impacting water management and increasing public unrest.
Over 600,000 Cubans are affected by water shortages, with Havana alone suffering 130,000 clients in need. The inefficiency of repairs has left thousands without service.
