    Yemeni Houthi rebels are believed to have damaged undersea data cables in the Red Sea that link Europe to Asia. The Iran-backed Houthis had already threatened to target the fiber optic cables, which carry an estimated 17% of the world’s internet traffic, and it now appears that the group has carried out attacks.

    Damn, pullin out all the stops now.

    You know if they don’t post a vid showing off some shiny new submersible soon, then they probably went about it in the jankiest way possible

    100 meters is pretty deep for scuba diving too…

      I wonder why you never talk about the Arab Sudanese genocide of black people. Doesn’t fit your narrative?

        You mean the RSF rebel group funded by the UAE? It would be far harder to stop that as they are also getting weapons from Russia.

        Can you perhaps vote Putin out next election?

          It’s harder to stop them yes as they’ve been going on for 30 years and barely any outcry about it

            They’re not nearly making the same amount of civilian casualties a day, let alone this many Children. What israel is doing right now matches the a top Nazi concentration camp in deaths at the peak of the Holocaust.

            And also we don’t support Sudan (with weapons) (unconditionally). So telling Biden to stop that is difficult.
