"Red Sea Internet Cable Cuts Disrupt Global Connectivity"

Several undersea communications cables in the Red Sea have been cut, affecting 25% of data traffic between Asia and Europe, with the cause still unclear. Hong Kong-based HGC Global Communications has rerouted traffic after four of the 15 cables were severed, while the US is investigating whether the cables were deliberately cut or snagged by an anchor. The Iran-backed Houthi movement in Yemen has been accused of sabotaging the cables, but they deny targeting them and blame US and British military strikes. HGC has taken measures to mitigate disruptions for its clients, and the US military's Central Command reported that the Houthis fired missiles at a ship in the Gulf of Aden.
