In Venezuela, massive blackout continues as Maduro blames U.S. for outages

CARACAS, Venezuela — Venezuela’s massive power outage stretched into a second day on Friday, with schools and offices closed while millions were left stranded by what the government called an act of sabotage.

Vice President Delcy Rodriguez said on the Venezuelan state TV network Telesur that President Nicolás Maduro had ordered schools and offices shut on Friday because of the blackout.

The state electricity company, Corpolec, said the blackout was due to “sabotage” of the Guri hydroelectric complex in southern Bolivar state — the source of most of the country’s electricity. But authorities provided no evidence of that.

Maduro blamed the United States for the outage in a late night tweet. “The power war announced and directed by U.S. imperialism against our people will be defeated. Nothing and no one can defeat the people of Bolivar and Chavez. Total unity of the patriotic people!”

Blackouts have become common in Venezuela as a severe economic crisis has made it difficult to perform maintenance or purchase imported spare parts. But the outage Thursday appeared to be broader than usual, with local media reports saying it had hit nearly all of the country’s 23 states.

Again, fully militarized for the last 5 years. Well guarded, but... CIA trained iguanas... and ninjas... in league with the Illuminati... very stealthy and discreet!
