Multiple undersea communication cables in the Red Sea region were recently severed, causing significant internet disruption across parts of Asia and the Middle East.

The outage impacted both high-speed connectivity for businesses and everyday online access for consumers.

Telecommunications providers are scrambling to reroute traffic and initiate repairs, though replacements may take time due to satellite link limitations.

The interruption highlights the vulnerability of global communication infrastructure to physical damage and geopolitical instability, as reported by NBC News.

Experts warn that prolonged disruption could have cascading effects on financial markets, supply chains, and regional communications until the cables are fully restored.
