The post, accessible at https://x.com/MarioJPenton/status/2024954965391733019, depicts the store's porch in the Plaza de la Revolución municipality amid Cuba's ongoing shortages. No official statement from Cuban authorities addresses the image or store conditions in this period. This report follows a social media declaration earlier on February 20 by @Amapola20202 of the end of Cuba's 60-year ration book system, as noted in prior coverage, and comes amid recent blackouts and detonation reports across Havana municipalities.
