The SHEFA-2 cable links the Faeroes to the Shetland and the UK. It also link to the BP-operated Clair Ridge oil field as well as to another oil field (i would assume) named Glen Lyon. However, the only Glen Lyon in the area is in Scotland, and not offshore. The name comes from Shetland-Faroes, which is its general route.
The line includes the world's longest passive fiber optic cable section, using no amplifiers at all in a stretch of 390 km.
The line is not particularly interesting. Perhaps it is because I am not well-versed on the history of the Faroes or the Shetlands, but I believe that the cables are fairly benign.
As to "why" thy were cut, my best guess, given recent events, is that the UK cut the cables to generate fear and hype and pin it on Russia (as if they could make it out of their own ports without being noticed by NATO satellites). It doesn't make sense for any other country to have done it. Those are shallow waters, regularly patrolled by the Royal Navy and one of the most strategically important regions of water to the UK. The fact that there is a blame game going on about this is further proof to me that the UK did it to distract from its economic and political crises and to attempt to further box Russia in. If so, it utterly failed.
"Wire" would be the most appropriate term to use, and has been used symbolically to invoke lines of communication (ex: first Spy-derman comic traversing telephone wires building to building).
Q's 619 uses "wire" in direct followup to "how do you defuse a bomb? Knowledge of which wires/strings to cut". Wire is the metaphor, strings is the intended meaning.
Q's 299 lays out the Pyramid structure, which relies on blackmail strings. Post was a mere month after the purge of Al-Waleed, the sole biggest "string cutting" event in human history.
There is a listening post on Unst which monitors any traffic approaching from the north and while they have radio, they probably use fibre optics for operations. Also a massive fuel storage depot nearby.
Yes, something along those lines. It really comes across to me that the Russians are trying to keep from escalating but also telling the world, Brits in particular, what they are capable of.
I don't believe that the rationale behind these events needs to be overly complicated to make sense. UK blew up Nord Stream pipes and Russia retaliated by cutting UK undersea internet cables. Warfare today is mostly tit-for-tat, because neither side dares to escalate a conflict into a full blown-out world war, therefore its a game of "getting even".
P.S. I believe the UK hasn't really got any personal reasons to carry out hostile operations against Russia, but they do so on the behest of the United States, because it would be bad optics for USA to be painted as an active participant in this conflict.

2022 and we're still using nation states to describe these entities? Bloke in Newcastle doesn't have any reason to piss off Russia, Rothschild Pyramid that uses 'City of London' as their center of Financial control sure does.
When we examine the quality of the term Nation State it is difficult to see it surviving the onslaught of mass immigration, rendering the word Nation useless.
What is left is a state, or estate, a plot of land where people work as in Roman times:
Slaves, indentured serfs, mansi, coloni and the free folk from the gutter.
Those were the "ingeseytene", or have nots, untouchables. Today that is achieved by forcing you to use your public law corporation called your strawman.
In and of itself it makes sense in a res publica, the problem is that it is a public law corporation and not a private law corporation. This allows the government as the issuer, to set the terms and conditions of use. Hence the growth of government and its encroaching tendencies, while at the same time sucking at the prime directive: border control.
To restore the Nation State tens of millions of people have a little journey ahead of them, back to where they came from. And it also presumes the leit-culture. However, currently, that has become an almost gordian knot to solve.
The objective might not have been to disrupt traffic, but redirect it. Kind of like blowing a bridge in a physical war in order to force your enemy to have to send all their tanks and transports 50 miles downriver to another bridge and a single chokepoint. Leaves them open to either direct attack... or eases the resources needed to surveil them.

I wonder if "strings" also refer to global internet cables?
"Knowledge of which wires/strings to cut?" https://qalerts.app/?n=619
"Strings cut to US/UK." https://qalerts.app/?n=299

Oh that is very interesting!
A+ digging fren. Thank you for sharing.
or maybe there is a secrete cable line within it to the BEAST , maybe the beast we speak of in the bible is man made A.I.
Banks might shut down this week if the internet is cut.
There is a listening post on Unst which monitors any traffic approaching from the north and while they have radio, they probably use fibre optics for operations. Also a massive fuel storage depot nearby.
Maybe it's nothing more than a demonstration: we can do this. Fuck around and find out.
or a practice run

Perhaps a prelude? Test?
