Marshall: I don't see any cables for Lebanon. I also don't see any cable for Syria. I see "Falcon" coming down an estuary on an edge border for Jordan. In proximity, Israel has some redundancy, although I don't have the granularity to strip out the specific cables. It looks like a "branch" to me, a splice point in a cable that happens under the water, which allows for multi-directional paths from a single cable. I would think that route-views would have any of what you may need to track down what's going on advertisement wise, and for free.

Dear Sean; Do you know how Syria, Jordan and Lebanon get their connectivity ? They have dropped off the map today for us. (Or maybe yesterday - I wasn't able to pay any attention to this yesterday.) Our Egyptian audience remains very low, while Iran still seems to be unaffected.

This is in addition to the damage affecting FLAG, SAE-ME-WE4, FALCON cables. Afer reviewing surveillance video of the area, Egypt's ministry of maritime transportation is reporting no ships were near the FLAG or SAE-ME-WE4 cables 12-hours before or after the cable damage near Alexanderia, Egypt. The reason for outage of the cables has not been identified yet.
