November was a binary choice. You can pretend else, but the fact is Gaza and the Palestinian future is now more vulnerable, not less. It's why Netanyahu resisted a ceasefire and hostage release until after the election. He wanted Trump. He got him. The Palestinians will lose.

150-200 cables are damaged each year, 15% (7-43) by anchors. If we assume Baltic maritime activity is 5% of the global total (likely way too high) Baltic Sea ought to see 1.5 incidents per year. 2023 & 2024 averaged at 6 breaks annually, 4 x higher. Map, visual aid for eyeballing 5%.
