I still haven’t seen independent confirmation of the cable cutting from a non Israeli source, nor have I seen indications of a cut line on any of the looking glass servers I’ve checked. This bit is important, because we should be able to independently see the results of a cut sea cable.

Did you look?

Seacom, however, has seemingly confirmed in the African press that it is having cable issues, but didn’t go so far as to point the blame at any group.

Seacom Confirms Cable Outage in Red Sea

This source links to some other sources, some Israeli and some not.

I think the overall takeaway is that at least some cables took some kind of damage. Blaming Yemeni rebels might be nonsense, though - other actors in the area might have done it.
