How much of this is news and how much of it is normal occurrences due to shipping or fishing?

I've found this example of a proven sabotage: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-21963100 which involved a few guys caught in the act less than 1 km from shore, then there are a lot of "suspicious" events where intention is never publicly proven.

Thanks. I was trying to figure out if the news is reporting on every little anchor snag or if it is an abnormal occurrence.

Well, it's a major cable and entirely unoperational at the moment, so newsworthy irrespective of the reason.
