LCD seems damaged, which part is needed to replace?

My sister dropped my tablet on concrete and now the display is like this (Pic 1).

Pressuring the center back near where the bottom of the LCD cable (Pic 2) returns the other half of the screen but still keeps the lines.

Is it the LCD that is broken or the cable?

Also, I would like to try to remove and re-insert the LCD cable before removed the digitizer from (Pic 2) circled in red but don’t know how.
