There’s only one country who has been running around doing this the past two decades. They’ve been confirmed to be in these areas, AND they have the capability.
To be honest I’d be surprised if this was Russia. It’s certainly not outside of Russia’s capabilities, but at the end of the day they’re just cables. Plenty of the Red Sea is right next to Houthi-controlled territory and not all that deep. Something like this is commercially available and easily capable of reaching the floor of the area near the Bab el-Mandeb that any cables from Europe to East Asia have to go through
Is there additional reading I can do on the topic? I’ve googled but found nothing but concerns from Nato officials that Russia could engage in seabed sabotage. This comment is universally praised so I guess it’s some universal knowledge I missed. What are some instances when they did it?
Near the beginning of the Ukraine War, someone damaged an underwater pipeline. It was from Russia but Russia couldn’t use it because of sanctions. I don’t recall any one figuring out who it was, so everyone blamed Russia, except those blaming Ukraine , or somehow there was a reason for US
Yeah, but for like a full year the US, the EU, and the press blamed Russia. Even though it’s obvious they knew full well who did it. Let alone that this explanation made no sense at all anyway.

Ladies and Gentlemen…RUSSIA!
You sad ass pieces of shit.

I mean depending on how deep they are they wouldn’t even really need that. I imagine you could just drop an anchor and drag it.
And the Vietnamese internet sharks.
Nope
Can’t you just drop a small anchor (on a decently large ship) and drag it along the sea floor? This type of attack doesn’t submarines.
Yes, in fact, that’s what happened last time the whole Arab peninsula was knocked off the Internet.

Let’s not all rush to blame Russia. Sharks could have also done it too.
DEFINITELY A SHARK IN THAT PICTURE
You mean, like that time they blew up their own pipeline? Oh wait…
Yeah right? Wasn’t it ukranians that did that?

First lie wins then after that the most interesting one
