The
Council of Ministers, led by President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez, met again,
yesterday evening, to evaluate the progress of recovery efforts following the
January 27 tornado that struck Havana, and coordinate forces to provide a rapid
response.
The
President insisted that speed and much sensibility for those affected must
define recovery efforts, and that repairs must leave facilities better than
before they were damaged.
Division
General Ramón Pardo Guerra, head of the Civil Defense General Staff provided an
updated report, indicating that 1,286 dwellings were damaged, 1,238 of which
have been visited. Total collapses number 123, and partial collapses 625.
e
We are working on establishing a donation facility where donations for the recovery can be sent (yes the blockade is real).
Many thanks to those who contacted us about this we'll back back in touch as soon as we've sorted the problem.
