An annual cigar festival in Cuban capital Havana has become the latest casualty of a fuel shortage caused by a US oil blockade.
The organising committee of the Festival del Habano announced on Saturday that this year's event - which was due to take place over five days in late February - would be postponed until further notice.
It said the decision was motivated "by the complex economic situation" facing Cuba due to the "economic, commercial and financial blockade" by the US.
A fuel shortage causing power cuts on the Caribbean island has been worsened by the US seizing oil shipments from Cuba's long-standing ally Venezuela.
Cuba also has a shortage of aviation fuel, leading several airlines to suspend services there, while some countries, including the UK, have warned against non-essential travel to the island.
