(There is not something more inhumane than what we are going through in Maracaibo, incredible that today is the fourth day without light. And you only serve to talk about a famous "sabotage" @OmarPrietoGob @CorpoelecZulia_ @LMOTTAD what garbage are! Useless)

(I have three days trying to communicate with relatives in Maracaibo. They are without light and it has been impossible to know how they are. So serious the collapse in Zulia)

Excuses are the usual... but not anything based upon reality, which is 19 years of neglect of the water and electrical infrastructure.

1. Sabotage (CIA, Colombia, etc.... the "go to" excuse for every malady that befalls ChavismoLand)

2. Fornicating iguanas on transformers. Possibly trained by the CIA or Colombia?

3. The sun is closer to Venezuela than the rest of the world. Clearly a CIA plot!

1. Going on 5 days. Chavismo (naturally) blames sabotage and "terrorists" for corrosion!

"...The social communicator explained that the cuts in the system are not programmed, "they are 20 hours with intervals of 2 to 4 hours with light".

On Friday morning, the state experienced the seventh general blackout so far this year due to the explosion of the 230Kv and 400Kv cables that pass through the bridge over Lake Maracaibo. Three days later, the situation has not been restored...."

When electricity (up until this latest continuous blackout) is intermittent, it is because of deficiencies, not sabotage. Now, a main electric cable has corroded and broken, and they have NOTHING to repair it with, since Chavismo has saw fit to neglect their water supply (none for months) and electrical grid for 19 years. You don't just run down to the hardware store and pick up a HUGE 400Kv, 5 mile long cable off the shelf.
