Cuban actor Luis Alberto García Novoa has once again underscored the collapse of essential services in Cuba by publicly exposing a massive potable water leak in Havana. He wittily dubbed the leak "Río Palacio," emphasizing the wastage of "pure and crystal-clear potable water" that flows unchecked "day after day." In his commentary, García Novoa directly challenged Havana's Water Company and local authorities, highlighting that while water is squandered without restraint at this site, "a vast number of Cubans are living with no access to drinking water." A resident from El Vedado expressed frustration: "It's infuriating to see potable water wasted in one place while so many others haven't seen a drop in months." Another Habanera was more forthright: "The whole city is like this, full of potable water leaks and sewage spills.
