Venezuela Shuts Schools, Businesses As Blackout Enters Second Day Unlisted Video

Venezuela shut schools and suspended working hours on Friday.

For a second day, the capital of Caracas and other major cities awoke without electricity due to a problem that struck the country’s main hydroelectric plant.

Much of Venezuela had no electricity since Thursday afternoon due to problems at the Guri dam plant.

Reuters reports the blackout has affected the telephone network and the metro service in Caracas.
