Eastern Cuba was rocked by two powerful earthquakes on November 10, 2024, with magnitudes of 6.8 and 5.9, following recent hurricanes and widespread blackouts. The epicenter was located near Bartolome Maso, and while there were no immediate reports of fatalities, the quakes caused structural damage to homes and infrastructure, sparking widespread fear among residents. The tremors were felt across eastern Cuba, including major cities like Santiago de Cuba and Holguin, and even as far as Jamaica. The earthquakes hit a nation already struggling with severe economic challenges and power outages exacerbated by Hurricane Rafael days earlier. Local authorities, including Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel, emphasized the priority of saving lives and assessing damage. Despite the intensity of the earthquakes, no tsunami warnings were issued, and the USGS reported no significant threat of a tsunami.
