US: Major Power Outage Leaves Thousands in Dark in San Francisco 5

A major power outage hit San Francisco on Saturday evening, December 20, at its peak affecting about 124,000 customers. Power was gradually restored, reducing the number of affected customers to around 24,000 by early Sunday morning. Large parts of the northern and western areas of the city were left in darkness, forcing store and transit closures and suspending Waymo’s driverless taxi service. The cause remains unclear, though a fire at a PG&E substation may have contributed, and the outage also disrupted public transportation and communications.

Construction of Pinglu Canal In Qinzhou - China

(251218) -- QINZHOU, Dec. 18, 2025 (Xinhua) -- This combo photo shows the aerial view of the construction site of the Qingnian hub, on Dec. 24, 2023 (above), and the aerial view of the construction site of this hub on Dec. 17, 2025 (below), on the Pinglu Canal in Qinzhou, south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Three years on, the construction of the Pinglu Canal as a core component of the New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor has shown remarkable progress. Upon completion, the 134.2-km canal would wind its way across Nanning and Qinzhou of Guangxi until it reaches the Beibu Gulf. It is expected to serve as an artery for river-sea inter-modal transportation in the southwestern part of the country. Photo by Zhang Ailin/XInhua/ABACAPRESS.COM
