IMHO after being in the region of the Suez Canal for well over a month in 1973 war, it was pure human error.
The wind blasts and lack of visibility with inexperience of the crew + filling of the canal with sand from the storm, may cause it.
Sands banks are very unstable as proven in 1973 when I crossed the canal and before when I was in 1971 on the canal shores.
I am certain that part of the blame is on Egypt by not properly maintaining the canal, sand can fill up the canal very quickly leaving little room for maneuver from experience when attacking the Third Army in October/November 1973
