Electricity cable link to Estonia was damaged on Christmas Day in action believed to be by Russia
Finnish investigators say they have found a seabed trail stretching “almost 100km” around the site of an underwater electricity cable that was damaged on Christmas Day in a suspected act of Russian sabotage.
The ship under suspicion of causing the damage, a vessel called the Eagle S flying the flag of the Cook Islands, is believed to be part of Russia’s so-called shadow fleet, used for transporting Russian oil products subject to embargos after the 2022 invasion of Ukraine.
