TL;DR Summary

Damage to undersea internet cables in the Red Sea has disrupted internet service across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East, impacting up to 25% of traffic in the areas. The incident, described as "exceptionally rare," has not disconnected any country from the internet but has noticeably degraded service in India, Pakistan, and parts of East Africa. The cause of the cuts remains unknown, and the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, particularly in Yemen, is complicating the repair process for the affected companies.
