Would make sense. I think the last time I saw this sort of thing it was BGP causing a bunch of traffic to route through Iran or china IIRC.

There was also an older instance with China https://www.cyberdefensemagazine.com/experts-detailed-how-ch...

I vaguely recall that incident. But it did not feel like it affected this many services.

At the same time I have not noticed anything being down firsthand. I am in Europe.

Here's the case [1]. Looks like they targeted a single /24 so that's likely why it wasn't a bigger issue.

so this is related to Israel's escalation that everyone is expecting?

The Pentagon Pizza Report has been having a lot of activity the past 24 hours. Maybe just a coincidence

Internet Health Report is reporting "No data to show".
