they have yet to conclude whether it was an accident or a deliberate act.
Emphasis mine. Although it should be noted that people connected to the investigations have said that it’s unlikely it was an accident due to the layer of rock that covers the cable, but there’s nothing definite yet.
Also, whether they have literally no motive for sabotage is, well, questionable; “I can’t come up with a reason” isn’t equal to “they have no reason”. Seems unlikely it was intentional if it was NewNew Polar Bear, but we don’t know if that ship’s actually related to the breakage, let alone whether they did it on purpose if it was.
