The Chinese United Front are testing a series of backbone organizations and assets for readiness. The final attack will coincide with major world events and obscure readiness and communications.
This will be done via disconnecting several relates levels of internet functionality so that even their repair measure will still seem unresolved. They will reconfigure and retry, unaware that their problem is solved, it's the other levels/locations of the internet's function that are still broken (so can't be tested against).
This will provide extended cover that could last days or weeks. So far testing of this plan has been going well.
