Damaged undersea cables linking Finland to Germany and Sweden to Lithuania were discovered in the Baltic Sea, raising suspicions of intentional sabotage. German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius indicated that the damage seems too severe to be accidental, while Finnish officials remain cautiously investigative regarding external involvement. The incidents have heightened concerns over critical infrastructure in the region, particularly in light of previous attacks on pipelines. Investigations are ongoing amid fears of potential threats to European data connectivity.
