Multiple physical cable cuts in multiple diverse locations in France.

Several networks that connect the internet infrastructures of major French cities were cut overnight, in a short interval. A state source evokes with "the Obs" a "coordinated malicious act", which confirms SFR and Free affected. An investigation has been opened.
