      Can it be reused/recycled? 0.26mm sounds like it would snap easily, so I would assume not, but does that then mean that there are 50km-long lengths of fibre strewn around Ukraine?

        I don’t think it can be reused, and yes, there’s lot of glass fibre strewn across Ukraine. There are pictures of places where there’s been extensive battling and they are covered in spiderweb-like glass fibre
