Finland Investigates Foreign Vessel’s Role in Undersea Cable Damage
Finnish police are investigating whether a foreign vessel is linked to damage sustained by an undersea power cable connecting Finland to Estonia, following a sudden blackout on Wednesday. Both governments will hold emergency meetings to address the situation, amid concerns of potential sabotage affecting Baltic infrastructure since 2022. Recovery of the damaged Estlink 2 cable could take several months, leaving only the Estlink 1 line operational. Authorities are collaborating on the investigation, focusing on the events surrounding this incident.
