- Cuba quantifies impact of US oil blockade on children's health and daily life
Cuba reports that U.S. energy sanctions have worsened children's health and daily life, with cancer survival rates for children dropping from 85% to 65%, 100,000 children under 7 losing daily milk rations, and disruptions to surgeries and dialysis. Fuel shortages and sanctions have also caused shortages of 300 essential medicines and power outages exceeding 20 hours, exacerbating a humanitarian crisis.
