Cuba delays Feb. 1 fuel price hike due to cyberattack

Cuba said on Wednesday it would delay a 5-fold hike in the price of gasoline planned for Feb. 1 due to a cyberattack, economy vice minister Mildrey Granadillo said on state-run TV.

Vice Minister Granadillo said a virus introduced into the computer systems from outside Cuba had prompted the delay in the controversial price hike.
