A government source told Hespress that Morocco is actively assisting Spain in restoring electricity after a major outage affected several regions across the country.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez also acknowledged Morocco’s support during his public remarks today, expressing gratitude for the “solidarity” shown by both Moroccan and French authorities.

He emphasized that the recovery of power supply in the northern and southern parts of Spain was achieved thanks to this coordinated effort.

Sanchez said Spain has no “conclusive information” about the cause of a blackout that has disrupted the lives of millions across Spain, Portugal and France.

“We still do not have conclusive information about the reasons for this outage… It’s better not to speculate, we will know the causes, we do not rule out any hypothesis,” Sanchez said in a televised address.

Sánchez pointed out that the outage stemmed from an incident within the “European electricity system” and noted that southern regions of France had also been affected.

Concluding his brief statement, Sánchez announced that the National Security Council would convene again at 7 p.m. to further assess the situation.
