Electricity service in Cuba was gradually restored Sunday, more than 36 hours after a substation failure left the entire island in the dark. Union Electrica, the state agency responsible for the electric grid, reported that most of the capital, Havana, and eastern parts of the country had power. It expected service to return to western areas on Sunday, too.
