Some more info :

Reports are coming in this morning that a fifth undersea fiber optic cable was severed in the Middle East. However, by several accounts, the fifth cable cut is actually a second cut on a different segment of the FALCON cable. How exactly these cables are being cut is still unknown, though Egyptian officials maintain a ship didn’t cause the breakages near the port of Alexandria. -

Not a ship...but perhaps a sub? Iran?

My bet is that naval forces, particularly US ones, are now alert and will be watching...and may well already know what is going on.
