Wow, civilian satellite images are getting very sharp. http://www.hindu.com/2008/04/07/stories/2008040759181200.htm Using satellite images of ship movements in the area, Reliance Globalcom identified two ships in the area at the time which may have damaged the cable. Reliance also confirmed the cable was damaged because of "jerks and force of the ship."
Thanks. I wish, though, the article had said *which* cable cuts those ships were responsible for -- remember that Egyptian authorities had said that their videos showed no ships off Alexandria.
