Chile, Google Launch Trans-Pacific Undersea Cable Project
Israa Farhan Chile has signed a landmark agreement with Google to construct the first submarine fiber optic cable connecting South America directly to Asia and Oceania. The ambitious Humboldt Project, scheduled for completion by 2027, aims to enhance global digital connectivity and data resilience. Announced during a formal ceremony in Santiago, Chilean Foreign Minister Alberto van Klaveren emphasized the strategic importance of the project, calling it a step toward diversifying digital infrastructure and strengthening international collaboration. The undersea cable will span approximately 14,800 kilometers (9,200 miles), linking Valparaíso on Chile's Pacific coast with Sydney, Australia, via French Polynesia. Currently, Chile connects to the wider internet primarily through North America. The Humboldt Project will offer a significantly faster and more direct route for data traffic across the Pacific, promising reduced latency and increased bandwidth capacity. The cable is expected to benefit not only Chile but also regional neighbors including Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil. Cristian Ramos, Alphabet's Director of Telecommunications Infrastructure for Latin America, confirmed that the new fiber network will be available to multiple users beyond Google, opening opportunities for technology firms across the continent. Initially unveiled in January 2024, the cable will feature a capacity of 144 terabytes per second and is designed for a 25-year lifespan. Chilean Telecommunications Minister Juan Carlos Muñoz highlighted its potential to revolutionize sectors such as telemedicine by dramatically cutting signal transmission delays. Google is investing an estimated $300 million to \$550 million in the project, while the Chilean government has pledged $25 million. The cable marks a major milestone in digital infrastructure and positions Chile as a critical hub in the evolving landscape of global internet connectivity. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream

Gaza rescuers say at least 10 killed in Israel strikes - War on Gaza
Gaza's civil defense agency said Israeli strikes killed at least 10 people in the battered Palestinian territory on Thursday. "Ten martyrs so far resulting from Israeli strikes since dawn," agency spokesman Mahmud Bassal told AFP. Adding that they had targeted an area where displaced civilians were sheltering in the southern city of Khan Younis and houses in Gaza City and the central town of Deir el-Balah. Israel has stepped up its genocidal war in what it claims is a bid to defeat Hamas. According to the Palestinian health ministry, at least 4,335 people have been killed in Gaza since Israel resumed its offensive on March 18, taking the war's overall toll to 54,607, mostly women and children. * This story was edited by Ahram Online.
