Any official news on the exact cause yet? Was it definitely faulty wiring?

I was in Paris two weeks ago and a local told me it was a worker who was smoking and dropped their butt in the wrong place.

(Not sure if that's true)

An unhappy mix of accidental fire source and overly complicated intervention process is what I gathered.
