A major fibre optic cable has been cut near Aix-en-Provence, France, causing a global internet connectivity slowdown, reports cybersecurity company Zscaler. Experts believe that the cable was severed in a deliberate “act of vandalism"; others have described it as “sabotage.”
In the early hours of 18 October, a cable was cut at a major landing point for several undersea internet cables, causing a chain reaction of connectivity problems across Europe and further afield. Connectivity was especially disrupted on internet cable between Marseille-Lyon, Marseille-Milan, and Marseille-Barcelona.
According to Zscaler CEO Jay Chaudhry, the vandalism caused connectivity problems across the world. “We are aware of a major cable cut in the South of France that has impacted major subsea cables with connectivity to Asia, Europe, US, and potentially other parts of the world… Customers may see packet loss and or latency for websites and applications which traverse these impacted paths,” Chaudhry told CNN.

It’s like pieces of the puzzle have been moved into position, and practice runs have been held. Just wait until they decide to make everything swing into action all at the same time.
Sounds like the Russians are up to more of their usual dirty tricks

soft target same result, plausible deniability?
Blow up heir pipeline and bridge. Sabotage them economically in dozens of ways. And they are so dirty they hit back? The nerve!
Don’t they know they are supposed to back down, apologize and install a leader who will obey London and DC? LOL
And who knows, could be those oil protesters, enviro wackos, Dutch Farmers, anti-WEF types, Yellow vests, Luddites, moslem maniacs, etc. Lot’s of candidates in Europe.
Probably not too smart for the West to take out Nordstream.
just had a major fire in Moses lake washington of a fertilizer plant....I guess we don’t need no stinking fertilizer.
Hell, I’d also look at the repairmen. I remember once in New Mexico the telecommunications union went on strike. You have never seen so many vandalized switch boxes.
A labor dispute could also be in the cards here.

...Take the national insignia off your soldiers, then invade your neighbor and kills thousands of their women and children. Only one candidate for that though: genocidal nazi Russia.
Poke the bear and eventually you get bitten.
That’s just a conspiracy theory...until it comes to fruition.
Then it’s no longer a theory, but an actual conspiracy.
