AFAIK, KDN carries bits for KDN to the UG/KE border, and then drops it off
on to UEDCL fiber (leased by Infocom presumably?) to KLA.

I would rather suspect first that the fiber cut is terrestrial (KDN or
UEDCL) and not undersea (SEACOM).

Of course, I may be wrong..there is always a first time for everything ;-)

I am on fiber from NBO PoP to LDN, it may be TEAMS tho:
