NATO takes action in the Baltic Sea
In the wake of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, there have been a number of incidents in the Baltic Sea that have damaged power cables, telecommunications links and gas pipelines.
NATO said last week it was launching a security mission called “Baltic Sentry” in which it would deploy frigates, patrol aircraft and naval drones in the Baltic Sea to help protect critical infrastructure. The alliance reserved the right to take action against vessels suspected of posing a security threat.
Last month, Finnish police seized a tanker carrying Russian oil. The ship is suspected of damaging the Finnish-Estonian Estlink 2 power line and four telecommunications cables by dragging its anchor across the seabed.
