CAIRO, EGYPT: Work starts on cut Internet cable

February 6, 2008

A repair ship began work in the Persian Gulf on Tuesday at the site where an Internet cable was cut last week, and a second vessel was to arrive later at the spot north of Egypt to work on two other cables cut two days earlier, FLAG Telecom said.

The cuts have disrupted Internet services across much of the Mideast and India.

There has been speculation that the cuts were caused by ships' anchors that dragged along the bottom of the sea in stormy weather. But Egypt's telecommunication ministry said no ships were registered near the first cable cut.
