A massive power outage swept across Spain and Portugal on April 28, 2025, disrupting daily life for millions. Footage shared by @pabloincolor at 10:44 UTC shows a Madrid metro station plunged into darkness, with services halted and passengers stranded.

The blackout, which began around 12:15 PM local time, caused Spain’s electricity demand to plunge from 27,500 MW to 15,000 MW. Trains, airports, and traffic systems were severely impacted, with the Spanish government describing it as the worst power failure in recent history.
