Summary
The United Nations has warned that Cuba is facing a potential humanitarian collapse because of severe fuel shortages. The shortages are linked to U.S. policies that block oil supplies to the island.
Cuba's health minister says the U.S. blockades are pushing the healthcare system to the brink. Reports indicate the U.S. may send a shipment of humanitarian fuel to Cuba.
