The report explains that over the past century, warfare has evolved from Zeppelin raids and attacks on cities, industrial facilities, and energy sources to strikes on electricity and communications networks, cyberattacks, and data centers, with drones and satellites now used in combat. Civilian and economic infrastructure has become a consequential battlefield: disrupting it can throw armies, markets, and services into disarray, as shown by the Stuxnet attack on Iran’s Natanz facility, the 2015 cyberattack on Ukraine’s power grid, and the 2019 attack on Aramco facilities. Amid threats to target seven internet cables running through the Strait of Hormuz, the importance of these networks is clear: they carry around 99% of the world’s data and enable financial transfers worth nearly $10 trillion a day. However, experts estimate that cutting the cables in the strait would likely have a regional, rather than global, impact.
