Considering how often subsea cable sabotage is romanticized, actual 
incidents are not readily available to refer to. In my eyes operating in 
this space, there is only one I have been aware of in Egypt, in 2013.

At the moment, this is being classified as an accident. There isn't 
sufficient data to suggest otherwise.
