Reminder.
It is extremely unlikely that a grouping of 6 cable breaks in a week are explained by common causes.
A lot of cables break each year, and any one might be from a benign cause. But not this many.

There is an estimated 1 in 10k - 100k years chance that all 8 of the Nov 2024 - Jan 2025 Baltic Sea cable breaks are coincidental.
Background data is hard to get by but no matter which real data or reasonable assumption one picks it is extremely unlikely all 8 of them are explained by chance.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.
