Last night, the twin pipelines supplying Russian natural gas to Germany blew up. Specifically, they were both breached below the surface of the Baltic Sea, near Danish and Swedish territorial waters. Almost certainly sabotage, based both on the time coincidence, and a Swedish seismologist’s estimate that at least 100kg of explosive was used. This sabotage was not a trivial exercise. Source
Zero Hedge reports that German magazine Der Spiegel said the CIA recently warned Berlin about the increasing signs of a possible planned attack on the Nord Stream pipeline system. Der Spiegel said Russia could have pulled off such an attack but “It is difficult to see whether Russia or Ukraine could have an interest in such an incident…On the contrary, there would be immense political disadvantages that could arise from an attack.” Seismologists in Denmark and Sweden on Monday recorded powerful blasts in the areas of the Nordstream pipeline leaks, Sweden’s National Seismology Centre at the Uppsala University. Prime Minister of…
Paul Joseph Watson reports that the German government thinks the Russian gas pipelines could have been deliberately sabotaged. On Sunday night, pressure in the Nord Stream 2 undersea gas pipeline dropped from 300 to 7 bars and on Monday afternoon, a similar event occurred with Nord Stream 1. There is also a large gas leak near the island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea, near the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. The attack would have required special forces, navy divers or a submarine which were able to reach the bottom of the sea and therefore, it had to have been deliberate.…
Magdalena Andersson told a news conference the Swedish government was in close contact with partners such as NATO and neighbors such as Denmark and Germany concerning the developments.
The Kremlin said on Tuesday that it cannot rule out “sabotage” as the cause of significant damage to the Nord Stream pipeline network that carries gas from Russia to Germany.
Leaks in major pipelines built to carry natural gas from Russia to Western Europe have sparked investigations and accusations that sabotage might be at work. The pipelines, Nord Stream 1 and 2, are supposed to carry the fuel through the Baltic Sea. The flow through Nord Stream 1 was halted for maintenance in early September but has never resumed. Nord Stream 2 has never gone online because of sanctions against Russia for its invasion of Ukraine. But now both projects are being plagued by “unprecedented” leaks and now European authorities are looking into whether foul play might have been involved.…
Suspicions that the Nord Stream gas pipelines have been “sabotaged” are circulating after images released by the Danish military on Tuesday appear to show geyser-like natural gas eruptions in the Baltic Sea. Video has now emerged from multiple sources, including Denmark’s military, which released a video from helicopter view purportedly showing leaking pipelines in the ocean, with the largest disturbance spreading across over 1,000 meters, or about 3,300 feet.
