"For the people, the work of the UEB of National Buses in Santiago de Cuba is emphasized," boasted the company, which is often the subject of strong criticism for the poor quality of the service they provide.

Recently, dozens of Cubans spent up to five days on the waiting list at the bus terminal in Havana, amid the transportation and fuel crisis in the country.

The journalist Yosmany Mayeta posted images of several people of all ages, including small children, sleeping on the floor of the Villa Nueva Terminal in Havana.

The Cuban government recently acknowledged the transportation crisis in the country, revealing that more than half of the provincial routes are paralyzed, according to information provided during the latest session of the Cuban Parliament.

Eduardo Rodríguez Dávila, Minister of Transportation, stated that by the end of April, 52% of the routes of the provincial transportation companies were paralyzed, according to the official newspaper Granma.
