Air Canada said it was suspending service to Cuba from Monday due to a lack of guaranteed fuel supply at airports in the country, where US pressure has created an oil crisis.

"It is projected that as of February 10 aviation fuel will not be commercially available at the island's airports," Air Canada said in a statement, announcing it would be sending empty flights to Cuba over the coming days to repatriate people already there.
