At least three people have died after torrential rains on Wednesday caused high flooding in parts of Havana, forcing 10,000 to seek refuge.
According to reports on Thursday from local authorities, the victims included a pensioner who drowned in the Old Havana district, a 24-year-old man who was electrocuted by falling cables, and a 43-year-ol lawyer.
Winds at a speed of up to 98 miles per hour caused trees to fall and three buildings to collapse, damaging 24 more.
The floods also caused cuts to the power and water supply in parts of the city, where three shelters have opened to offer refuge to the 10,000 made homeless.
Much of the city's housing is old and in poor condition, and its buildings are prone to collapse, a problem exacerbated by overcrowding, budget constraints and the effects of a decades-long trade embargo.
