The US Navy is worried that Russia might be
planning to cut the undersea cables that carry
95% of internet traffic.
The presence of Russian submarines and spy
ships near most of the undersea cables carrying
majority of global Internet communications has
U.S. officials concerned that Russia could be
planning to sever the lines in periods of conflict,
the New York Times reported on Sunday.
Sources say already there was no evidence of
cable cutting but that the concerns reflected
increased wariness among U.S. and allied officials
over growing Russian military activity around the
world.
The Times quoted naval commanders and
intelligence officials as saying they were
monitoring significantly greater Russian activity
along the cables’ known routes from the North
Sea to Northeast Asia and waters closer to the
United States.
“It would be a concern to hear any country was
tampering with communication cables; however,
due to the classified nature of submarine
operations, we do not discuss specifics,” U.S.
Navy spokesman Commander William Marks told
the Times.
Last month, the United States closely monitored
the Russian spy ship Yantar, which equipped with
two self-propelled deep-sea submersible craft,
cruised off the U.S. East Coast toward Cuba,
where one cable lands near the U.S. naval base at
Guantanamo Bay, according to the Times.
Naval officials said the ship and the submersible
craft were capable of cutting cables several miles
(km) deep beneath the sea.
The cables carried more than $10trillion daily in
global business and more than 95% of daily
communications.

There's no truth in US's allegations against Russia. Nothing but propaganda.
