Niger-Algeria fibre link opens new route to global internet
Original: Niger-Algeria fibre link opens new route to global internet infrastructure
A new fibre-optic link between Niger and Algeria has been launched, giving the landlocked Sahel nation a direct connection to global internet infrastructure through Algerian networks. The route offers an alternative to coastal submarine cables, potentially improving connectivity, resilience and data costs for Niger and neighbouring countries in the region.
Why now: The link has just been announced, marking a significant infrastructure step for a landlocked country with limited internet routes.
