The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) is contributing to preschool education in the eastern province of Holguín with a donation of early stimulation kits and equipment as part of its collaboration in the sector's recovery following Hurricane Melissa.
Construction and cleaning efforts continue in Holguín as part of the recovery phase actions to reverse the damage caused by Hurricane Melissa to economic, social, and private infrastructures.
The President of the National Defense Council, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermudez, stated in Holguín that while the difficult situation created by Hurricane Melissa has been handled well, "now comes the longest and most complex stage: recovery."
The Frank País International Airport in Holguín resumed operations smoothly after Hurricane Melissa, a category three storm on the Saffir-Simpson scale, passed through eastern Cuba, causing no severe damage to the facility.
