BTCCSquare news:
Microsoft confirmed its Azure cloud platform remains operational despite multiple undersea cable cuts in the Red Sea. Network traffic was rerouted through alternate paths, though users between Asia and Europe may experience elevated latency. The tech giant detected performance degradation starting 05:45 UTC Saturday.
Repairs to damaged cables—including EIG, AAE-1, and SEACOM/TGN-EA systems—will require significant time. Microsoft's engineering teams are actively optimizing routing to minimize customer impact. While traffic conditions improved slightly by Sunday, telecom users in the UAE and other affected regions continue facing connection delays.
