Description
"When we go to sleep, it is with the fear of not waking up again," says Elisa Bacyan, resident in one of about 700 apartment buildings deemed unsafe in the Cuban capital, where collapses are frequent. The 51-year-old housewife, who has already lost her first-born child, lives with her daughter (12) in an old-town building named "Edificio Cuba" that dates from 1940. At the end of 2020, 37% of the country's 3.9 million homes were in fair or poor technical condition, according to official statistics. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
