Maybe they could just borrow the one that destroyed the North Sea pipeline.

It's not like there are any important fiber optic cables running through that area.

Biden will give the Houthis free internet, Disney+ and Paramount+ for life if they promise not to destroy the cable.

The Bab-el-Mandeb Strait is 16 miles wide and only 96 ft. deep. Doesn't take much of a submersible to go down 100 ft. Hydrostatic pressure at that depth is 56 psi (not much pressure). With Iran's help, they could build a undersea RPV very quickly to deliver explosives.
Also, there are cable landing stations all over the place that are vulnerable.

Thanks for the info. That depth would definitely be diveable.

Once archaeologists determined that Yemen was not the home of the Garden of Eden its usefulness disappeared. Now, just level the place and be done with it.
To: Republican in occupied CA
Why are there any Houthis left? Be careful how you speak of these future Democrat voters! Eventually one of these will be elected to Congress after they dump a hundred thousand or so of them in some district in flyover country and that Congresspersons job will be to represent Yemen and the Houthi’s in Congress!

If BATO and the US goes to war with Russia directly, expect many, many undersea data cables to be cut.
