Undersea cables in the Red Sea have been cut, disrupting internet traffic across Asia and the Middle East, with speculation swirling over whether Yemen’s Houthis or accidental ship anchors are responsible. Microsoft confirmed increased latency for some Azure users but said global traffic rerouting limited the wider impact. While Houthis, who have attacked over 100 ships since late 2023, deny targeting cables, experts warn intentional strikes could escalate the Israel-Hamas conflict into a broader international crisis. Investigations remain ongoing.

Microsoft confirmed severe latency issues for Azure cloud users, with connectivity across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East disrupted. While the cause of the cable damage remains unclear, speculation mounts over Houthi involvement amid their vow to enforce a blockade. The latest crisis underscores the Red Sea’s emergence as a central front in the broader Middle East conflict.
