Power Outage In Europe Halts Airports, Metro Stations

On Monday, a significant power outage struck both Spain and Portugal, impacting millions of residents by leaving them without electricity for several hours. The blackout, which initiated around 10:33 GMT, was attributed to ongoing issues with the European electric grid, though specific details about the nature of these problems and the cause of the outage in Europe remain unclear. The blackout disrupted daily life significantly, affecting transportation and healthcare—flights were grounded, public transport stopped, and hospitals had to focus on emergency care.
