Concentrating 13 subsea cables near Mumbai's Versova creates a single point of failure, leaving India's internet infrastructure vulnerable to geopolitical tensions, aging cables, and delayed foreign maritime repairs.

Is Versova India’s weak link? Undersea enemy attack could destroy India’s internet

While the world is worried about oil and gas due to ongoing West Asia tension, Iran has set its eyes on another Achilles' heel, a real hidden weakness, the subsea fibre-optic cables running beneath the Strait of Hormuz. These cables carry more than 95 per cent of global internet traffic and financial data. These are not only internet cables, but also the financial transactions, military communications, AI traffic and everyday data flows that connect Europe, Asia and the Persian Gulf, which Iran wants to cut.&nbsp;This concern followed after Tehran warned to impose fees on firms including Google, Microsoft, Meta and Amazon for use of the submarine cables that pass beneath the strait, according to reports from state-linked Iranian media. Last week, Iranian military spokesperson Ebrahim Zolfaghari said on the social media platform X, "We will impose fees on internet cables."&nbsp;Iran's Revolutionary Guards media outlets indicated that the development would require major technology firms to comply with Iranian law. The country has demanded fees from the submarine cable operators. Maintenance and repair rights would also be handed exclusively to Iranian companies.&nbsp;Also read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/iran-responds-to-a-new-us-proposal-to-end-war-will-there-be-a-breakthrough-1779093137279">'Via Pakistani mediator': Iran responds to new US proposal to end war - Will there be a breakthrough?</a><h3>Why Subsea cables matter?</h3>Subsea cables form the foundation of global digital connectivity, carrying the majority of the world's internet and data traffic. Any serious damage to them would cause more disruptions than just slower internet speeds, potentially affecting banking systems, military communications, artificial intelligence, financial trading and cross-border transactions.&nbsp;Several major intercontinental subsea cables pass through the Strait of Hormuz. Given long-standing security concerns around Iran, international operators have historically routed most cables through a narrow corridor on the Omani side of the waterway. However, two cables, Falcon and Gulf Bridge International, pass through this water route, according to Alan Mauldin, research director at TeleGeography, a telecoms research firm.&nbsp;If the route or cables are disturbed, then the consequences would be felt at a large level globally. This includes India and Iran's neighbours, where severe internet outages will be seen. The strait is also a vital digital corridor connecting major Asian data hubs such as Singapore with cable landing stations across Europe. Any disruption could trigger internet outages in parts of East Africa and significantly slow financial trading as well as cross-border transactions between Europe and Asia.<h3>Does International Law Support Iran’s Position?</h3>Iranian media has argued that if Iran were to impose a fee, it would align with international law, citing the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). Article 79 of the convention grants coastal states the authority to establish conditions for cables or pipelines entering their territory or territorial waters.&nbsp;Although Iran has signed UNCLOS, it has not formally ratified it. Tehran has also pointed to Egypt as a precedent, noting that it charges transit and licensing fees for undersea cables passing through the Suez Canal. However, legal experts note that the comparison is limited, as the Suez Canal is an artificial waterway built within Egyptian territory, while the Strait of Hormuz is a natural maritime passage.

Iran threatens to disrupt subsea fiber-optic cables in the Strait of Hormuz, demanding transit fees from tech giants like Google and Meta. Since these lines carry 95% of global data, a disruption would cause severe internet outages and halt cross-border financial trading from Europe to Asia.

Global internet at risk? Iran targets subsea fiber-optic cables running under Strait of Hormuz

India, Pakistan, and the United Arab Emirates are among the countries affected by recent subsea cable disruptions in the Red Sea, which caused significant internet outages across Asia and the Middle East. Service providers like Etisalat and Du were impacted, and Microsoft reported increased latency for users of its Azure cloud services in the Middle East. Given the location and timing of the disruptions, some observers have questioned whether the Houthi rebels may be involved, particularly in the broader context of the Israel–Hamas war in the region. However, no conclusive evidence has emerged to support this theory. Why are the Red Sea cables crucial for global communications? Could this be another facet of the war? Here is what you need to know:&nbsp;<h2>How the Red Sea cable cuts are being felt</h2>The undersea cables were severed near Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on Saturday (Sep 6). Following the disruption, internet traffic has been rerouted through alternative cables and satellite systems, resulting in slower connectivity and delayed response times, especially due to the longer and more congested routes now being used.

Subsea cable cuts in the Red Sea hit internet in India, Middle East: Could this be another front in the Israel–Hamas war?

The United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) announced on July 17 that it plans to adopt new rules aimed at blocking the connection of undersea submarine communication cables to the US that include Chinese technology or equipment. This decision is part of a broader initiative to safeguard the US internet infrastructure from potential threats posed by foreign adversaries, particularly China. “We have seen submarine cable infrastructure threatened in recent years by foreign adversaries, like China,” said FCC Chair Brendan Carr in a statement. “We are therefore taking action here to guard our submarine cables against foreign adversary ownership and access as well as cyber and physical threats.”<h2>Security concerns over subsea cable networks</h2>The US has long expressed concerns over China’s involvement in the management and operation of global subsea cables, citing risks of espionage and cybersecurity breaches. More than 400 undersea cables currently handle approximately 99 per cent of international internet traffic, making them vital to global communication. In recent years, the US government has heightened its scrutiny of Chinese involvement in these networks, fearing that the country could exploit this infrastructure for surveillance or cyberattacks.The FCC’s announcement comes as part of a continued effort to protect national security. Since 2020, US regulators have successfully blocked the development of several subsea cables that would have linked the United States to Hong Kong, raising alarms about Chinese access to critical communication networks.<h2>Banning Chinese equipment in critical infrastructure</h2>The new rules would restrict the use of equipment and services from companies on an FCC blacklist, which includes major Chinese firms like Huawei, ZTE, China Telecom, and China Mobile. These companies have been identified as national security threats due to their ties to the Chinese government and concerns over potential misuse of the networks.Carr emphasised that the FCC’s actions were necessary to address the growing risks to submarine cable security, particularly as incidents of sabotage and physical attacks on undersea cables have escalated. In 2023, Taiwan accused Chinese vessels of cutting the only cables providing internet access to the Matsu Islands, and similar incidents have been reported in the Red Sea, where three cables serving Europe and Asia were damaged. The FCC will also seek public comment on additional measures to further strengthen the security of submarine cables against foreign adversary interference.
