Internet traffic between South Asia, the Gulf and parts of the Middle East slowed dramatically after multiple subsea fibre‑optic cables in the Red Sea were damaged, forcing carriers and cloud providers to reroute traffic, prompting Microsoft Azure to warn customers of higher latency and exposing...

Multiple undersea fibre-optic cables in the Red Sea were cut on 6 September 2025, triggering measurable slowdowns and intermittent connectivity across South Asia and the Middle East and forcing major cloud and carrier operators — most visibly Microsoft Azure — to reroute traffic, warn customers...

Internet traffic between Asia, the Middle East and parts of Europe slowed sharply after multiple undersea fiber‑optic cables in the Red Sea were cut, forcing carriers and cloud operators to reroute traffic and warning users — most visibly Microsoft Azure customers — that they could see higher...

Microsoft Azure users saw slower-than-normal responses after multiple undersea fiber-optic cables in the Red Sea were reported damaged, forcing traffic onto longer detours while Microsoft and carrier partners rerouted and rebalanced capacity to preserve reachability. Background / Overview The...

A sudden cluster of undersea fiber cuts in the Red Sea has forced Microsoft Azure and other cloud and carrier operators to reroute traffic, producing measurable latency and slower internet performance across parts of South Asia, the Gulf and beyond—an event that exposes how a handful of damaged...

Microsoft has warned customers that parts of Azure may show higher‑than‑normal latency after multiple undersea fiber‑optic cables in the Red Sea were reported cut on 6 September 2025, forcing traffic onto longer detours while carriers and cloud operators reroute and rebalance capacity...

Microsoft confirmed that parts of its Azure cloud experienced higher‑than‑normal latency after multiple undersea fiber‑optic cables in the Red Sea were cut, forcing traffic onto longer detours and exposing a brittle chokepoint in the global internet backbone. Background The global internet —...

Microsoft Azure warned customers of higher‑than‑normal latency after multiple undersea fiber‑optic cables in the Red Sea were cut, forcing traffic onto longer detours while carriers and cloud operators rerouted traffic and prepared for complex maritime repairs. Background / Overview The global...

Undersea fibre links in the Red Sea were cut in early September 2025, producing measurable internet slowdowns and elevated cloud latency across South Asia, the Gulf and parts of Africa as operators scrambled to reroute traffic while investigators and repair crews worked to identify the physical...

Microsoft has warned that users of its Azure cloud may see higher-than-normal latency and intermittent disruptions after multiple undersea fiber-optic cables in the Red Sea were cut, forcing traffic onto longer alternate routes while repair work and global rerouting continue. Background The Red...
