The blackout, which occurred on July 6, 2026, has left the entire country without electricity as the national power system ceased functioning entirely. This represents a major infrastructure failure affecting the Caribbean island's population and economy.

Details regarding the cause of the complete system failure remain to be clarified as authorities assess the situation and work toward restoring service across the nation.
