Swedish and Danish PMs say severed undersea cables could be sabotage
Briefly

"We also have to assume, without knowing it yet, that it was sabotage," said German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius, emphasizing the seriousness of recent incidents affecting telecom cables in the Baltic.
Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen stated that due to ongoing tensions around the Baltic, there is a risk of hybrid attacks: "We're seeing more and more unrest on several fronts," indicating a growing threat to critical infrastructure.
Sweden's Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson remarked that the severed cables "very well could be intentional sabotage," reflecting a heightened awareness of the risks posed by possible external threats.
The Danish navy's monitoring of a Chinese cargo ship near severed cables underscores the urgency of the situation, as observed in previous incidents, such as the Nord Stream pipeline explosions.
