Under Hormuz, the artery of the modern world ‘Internet Cable’, Iran’s attack will appear a crisis of civilization?
Iran is becoming the biggest weapon in the third week of the war! The Strait of Hormuz is blocked. Meanwhile, Iran is attacking oil reserves in West Asia. The goal is to throw the entire world into an energy crisis. Meanwhile, a new threat — Tehran may completely shut down internet services in large parts of the world. How? Hormuz Internet Cables pass under the Strait of Hormuz. Defense experts estimate that Iran, cornered by a joint attack by the US and Israel, could cut off Internet connections passing under Hormuz. In that case, the government and private management of many countries including India will collapse instantly.
Just as the Internet cable passed under the Strait of Hormuz, the internet connection passed under another strait, Bab el-Mandeb. The fear is that the Houthis, an Iranian-backed Lebanese militant group, have warned that they will attack and block the Red Sea strait at Bab el-Mandeb. If the two channels, the ‘arteries of civilization’, are closed, there will be severe fuel shortages around the world. Besides, if the internet connection is disconnected, there will be a real crisis of civilization. Undersea cable lines can be accidentally damaged by missile attacks, military experts believe.
Seventeen ‘submarine cables’ have passed through the Red Sea, according to Capacity Global, a news website for the global telecom, data center and digital infrastructure industry. These cables carry the bulk of internet traffic connecting Europe, Asia and Africa. Thus, it goes without saying that its importance is immense. Note that the active submarine cables in the Persian Gulf are AAE-1, Falcon, Gulf Bridge International Cable System and Tata-TGN Gulf. These lines exchange data with India and the rest of the world. As a result, if the cables under Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb are damaged, the rest of the world will stop along with India.

Incidentally, America and Israel launched a joint attack on Iran on February 28. Several regions of Iran, including Tehran, were destroyed. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei died in the attack. In response, Iran is attacking several American military bases spread across the Middle East and Israel. Massive missile and drone attacks have been carried out on Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Jordan, Iraq, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Turkey. The death toll in Iran has exceeded 3,000. Several countries, including Russia, China, Spain, India, have offered peace proposals, but none of the parties is willing to withdraw from the war.
There may not be a united power like America or Israel, but Iran is not lacking in strategy. They made it clear by launching a missile attack on Qatar’s largest natural gas base on Thursday. It is known that the base was damaged by the attack of Iran. However, the extent of the damage is still unclear. There are no reports of casualties at this time. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump has warned Iran again after attacking the gas base in Qatar. He said, America will take ‘stern action’ if it attacks Qatar again. Tehran, with its back against the wall, is not heeding Trump’s warning. They continue to target one oil refinery in the Middle East. The whole world including India will suffer as a result.
