Cuba conveys its solidarity for damages of Hurricane Ida in US

Havana, Sep 1 (Prensa Latina) Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez wished today a quick recovery to southern territories of the United States hit by Hurricane Ida.

In a message posted on Twitter, he expressed solidarity after the passage of the storm that left damages still to be quantified, according to press agencies.

The states of Louisiana and Mississippi were the most hardly hit areas by Ida, which slashed into the US southern coast on August 29 with category four on the five-level Saffir-Simpson scale.

At least two deaths were reported in the area while more than a million people had no electricity in the middle of a heat wave.

In addition, floods and damage to oil networks were reported.
