No hard evidence?

- Marine tracking shows the suspect vessel deviating from normal course,
and stopping twice, each time in the area of where each cable was damaged.
- After the vessel started moving again, each cable went offline shortly
after.
- The Danish navy has stopped the suspect vessel, and is holding it pending
investigation.
- The same country admitted to dragging an anchor hundreds of miles ,
damaging multiple subsea cables and other infrastructure just 13 months
ago. Of course, it was an 'accident' .

There's plenty of evidence (both direct and circumstantial) for the claims
being made to be reasonable.
