Trains, sabotage on the line in Calabria: cutting of optical fibre cables

A sabotage incident has disrupted train services in Calabria, Italy, after unknown individuals cut fiber optic and copper cables along multiple railway lines. The attack affected sections of the Tirrenica and Ionica lines, causing suspensions on several routes including Salerno-Paola, Catanzaro Lido-Taranto, and others. The Italian Rail Network (Rfi) reported that technicians are working to restore full functionality, which may lead to delays, route restrictions, or cancellations for high-speed, intercity, and regional trains. While no claims of responsibility have been made yet, similar acts by opponents have occurred before. Authorities are investigating the incident, but securing thousands of kilometers of tracks against theft or sabotage remains a significant challenge requiring substantial investment in surveillance and monitoring.
