Granma province in Cuba paralyzed all inter-provincial transport due to a lack of fuel during the 59-minute reporting window from 4:16:43 PM to 5:16:35 PM UTC on February 6, 2026, according to an X post by MagJorgeCastro. Local extreme rationing measures were announced in what the post described as a regime media maneuver to conceal vulnerability. The post from MagJorgeCastro (https://x.com/MagJorgeCastro/status/2019812985301262666) highlighted the urgent halt in transport services across Granma province, marked with a warning emoji and #Urgent hashtag. This development underscores ongoing fuel shortages affecting Cuba's transportation infrastructure. This fuel crisis follows earlier US Navy monitoring of the OFAC-sanctioned oil tanker SANDINO north of Cuba, which changed course to avoid the USS Stockdale during the prior reporting window, as cited by AeroNoticiasVE on X. The tanker's estimated 45,000-50,000 tons of fuel remains relevant to Cuba's supply challenges.
