On the morning of 5 October, Hurricane Matthew, the Caribbean's worst storm in nearly a decade hit parts of the Bahamas, Haiti and Cuba. Hurricane Matthew caused significant damage in the three countries, exacerbating existing vulnerabilities.

The ETC activities in the Caribbean are coming to an end soon.

Following the 7.2 magnitude earthquake that struck southwest Haiti on the morning of 14 August 2021, the extent of the damage to local telecommunications infrastructure is still unclear.
