At least four people have died and 200 injured after a rare tornado swept through Cuba’s capital, Havana.
Experts say the tornado was the strongest in nearly 80 years and Cuba’s central and eastern areas have been the worst hit.
Reports describe streets strewn with glass, debris, downed trees and power lines. Some areas are without electricity and running water after the tornado, which hit late on Monday evening.
Cuban meteorologist Jose Rubiera said the tornado lasted only 16 minutes, sweeping over seven miles of the city, at times reaching over half a mile in diameter.
He told Cuban news agency Prensa Latina that the devastation suggested the tornado was an EF4 category, the second-most powerful category, with winds up to 200 miles per hour.
