Jamaica is experiencing an island-wide power blackout, Energy Minister Daryl Vaz said on Friday evening in a post on social media, without providing a reason for the outage.
National energy supplier, Jamaica Public Service Company (JPS), confirmed the outage affected the entire island and said it was investigating the causes of the blackout.
A company spokesperson told Reuters that JPS was taking steps to restore electricity, with reports indicating power had already returned to some parts of the island.
