Four of among 15-plus submarine cables in the Red Sea have been cut with an estimated impact on 25% of traffic, Reuters reports, reportedly due to sabotage activities.
This has led to a considerable interruption to the flow of data in the region.
In a statement HGC Global Communications said it is extending assistance to affected businesses. “We have received inquiries from MENA (Middle East & North Africa regions) carriers, for contingency rerouting options.”
