There is no reason to assume these are civilian satellites. Any one of a
number of affected or interested countries could have provided the
imagery (or ship information) to Reliance. Its not saying *who* analyzed
the images. ;)
Then again, how are ship's captains supposed to know *where* they are
allowed to drop anchor? Is there a "Call before you drop" anchor service
similar to "call before you dig?"

Using satellite images of ship movements in the area, Reliance
Globalcom identified two ships in the area at the time which
may have damaged the cable.
Reliance also confirmed the cable was damaged because of "jerks and
force of the ship."
