Iran takes control of seven underwater Internet cables in The Strait of Hormuz. This is reported by TradingView News.

"Iran has announced its intention to take control of seven underwater Internet cables in the strategic Strait of Hormuz. This step requires foreign operators to obtain permits and comply with Iranian legislation, which could increase regional tensions," the report said.

According to The Kobeissi Letter, this also implies the payment of fees. According to the new policy, all management and maintenance of cables will be carried out by Iranian companies.
