Iran threatens undersea cables in Strait of Hormuz

Original: Iran's threat to cut undersea cables in Strait of Hormuz poses a threat to Gulf

Reports say Iran has threatened to cut undersea communication cables running through the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint carrying much of the world's data and oil traffic. Analysts warn such a move could disrupt internet and financial connectivity for Gulf states, compounding regional tensions and raising the stakes for economies that depend heavily on those links.

Why now: Rising Iran-Gulf tensions make threats to critical infrastructure a major concern for global communications and energy markets.
